X-WR-CALDESC:Franklin Delano Roosevelt’s New Deal changed the course of his
tory and fundamentally altered the role of the U.S. federal government. It
was so successful that decision-makers continued adding policies and prog
rams to it over the next 80 years to adapt it to new challenges and areas
of concern. But since the 1970s\, the New Deal’s original programs and ad
hoc additions have sputtered in the face of rising international competiti
on and highly disruptive technology. For decades\, we’ve made little progr
ess—often seen as deterioration—in economic security and market regulation
.\n\nSo\, has the New Deal era ended?\n\nNot at all\, argues David R. Riem
er in 'Putting Government in Its Place: The Case for a New Deal 3.0' (Hens
chelHAUS\, October 2019\; hard cover\, $29.95\, paperback\, $19.95). In fa
ct\, it’s the perfect time to update the New Deal to address our 21st cent
ury concerns\, such as decent-paying jobs\, health insurance and education
\, a clean environment and a marketplace that does not harm us\, a fixed-u
p infrastructure\, and a tax system that is fair\, simple\, and less burea
ucratic. Taken together\, Riemer’s vision for a New Deal 3.0 would reduce
racial disparities and injustice and help to stop the rising tide of inequ
ality in income and wealth. \n\nMilwaukee author David Riemer has worked w
ith Democrats and Republicans to create path-breaking public policy at the
state level and influence national policy. Riemer has held administrative
\, legal\, and policy-making positions with former Milwaukee Mayor John No
rquist\, the late Wisconsin Governor Patrick Lucey and former Governor Jim
Doyle\, and the late U.S. Senator Edward Kennedy.\n\nRiemer is the Fou
nding Director of Community Advocates Public Policy Institute\, which is c
o-sponsoring his book launch at 7 p.m. on Wednesday\, November 6\, at Bosw
ell Book Company\, 2559 N. Downer Ave.\, Milwaukee. \n\nRSVPs are apprecia
ted to help us plan for the evening. Please register at the link below.\n\nFrom the Foreword by Gwen Moore\n\n“Of greatest importance\, t
he book makes a highly persuasive case for why a sweeping redesign of the
New Deal model—a New Deal 3.0—is now necessary to undo the inequality and
uncertainly that are tearing our country apart. It makes a compelling argu
ment for how to get America back on a path of equitable and enduring econo
mic security for unemployed\, underemployed\, working\, disabled\, and ret
ired seniors (including health insurance\, long-term care\, and education
reforms)\, and how to more effectively regulate markets to prevent damage
to the environment\, workers\, consumers\, and investors.”\n\nAdvance P
raise for Putting Government in Its Place\n\n“David Riemer provides th
e reader a challenging diagnosis of our public condition today and then of
fers his fresh and his original vision for a better tomorrow. A book every
candidate and every citizen should read before the 2020 election.”—Mark S
hields\, PBS NewsHour political analyst and syndicated columnist\n\n“David
Riemer does an excellent job identifying the challenges America faces in
crafting a New Deal 3.0. And he takes an important step further\, by prese
nting solutions\, sometimes provocative ones\, to move our nation forward.
An engaging read.”—Tom Barrett\, Mayor of Milwaukee\n\n“David Riemer is b
rilliant and is a rare bird. Very few people argue for an economy that inc
ludes everyone and uses the word ‘justice.’ David pulls it all together\,
from FDR to right now. He gives a map for economic justice and tells us ho
w to get it done. This book is smart and wide. Read it.”—Peter Edelman\, C
armack Waterhouse Professor of Law and Public Policy\, Georgetown Law Cent
er\n\n“His arguments are drawn from a lifetime of experience in government
\, research\, and advocating for the less fortunate. This book is a must f
or anyone who cares about the state of our union.”—Kenneth A. Germanson\,
President Emeritus\, Wisconsin Labor History Society\n\n“David Riemer’s ne
w book is a must read for anyone interested in federal social programs’ pu
blic policy in the 21st century. First\, it provides a historical comprehe
nsive account and superb analysis of how we got to our current programs an
d their respective structure. His legal and public policy training and exp
erience form the basis for his ideas and prescriptions for what our countr
y needs to change—they would be considered ‘disruptive’ in today’s parlanc
e—to better serve our residents. Though not all will find David’s perspect
ive to fit their own\, all will find his contribution a compelling discour
se and one that we should seriously consider.”—Enrique E. Figueroa\, Ph.D.
\, Emeritus\, Associate Professor\, Department of Urban Planning\, Univers
ity of Wisconsin-Milwaukee\n\n“Part history\, part economic theory\, David
Riemer’s new book\, Putting Government in Its Place: The Case for a New D
eal 3.0\, clearly delineates the successes and failures of FDR’s New Deal
and the many follow-on policies that came after World War II. But\, perhap
s most importantly\, he offers in his work thoughtful ideas and policy pre
scriptions for a New Deal 3.0 that he convincingly argues would ‘create a
comprehensive structure of economic security for all Americans.’ Leaders
in state capitals and Washington\, D.C.\, should take heed\; Riemer’s work
warrants a close review.”—Michael Morgan\, former Secretary of Revenue\,
State of Wisconsin\n\n“It is important to give credit for massive sea poli
cy changes in the basic ‘social contract’ of government with its citizenry
. But government’s duty is to continually evaluate whether what served bes
t in the past serves best for the future. Riemer’s book compels us to do j
ust that. And he goes yet a step further by posing what a better governmen
t\, a better future could look like. That is why it ought to be a ‘must re
ad’ for all of us citizens.”—Kathleen Falk\, Dane County Executive (1997-2
011) and former Regional Director\, U.S. Department of Health and Human Se
rvices\n\n“So much rhetoric today is about good vs. evil. Sadly\, sometime
s that’s appropriate\, but if you want to actually improve government poli
cy outcomes read David Riemer’s Putting Government in Its Place. Mayors\,
governors\, legislators\, policy analysts\, and concerned citizens will be
inspired when they’re reminded that with thoughtfulness and determination
public policy can significantly improve people’s lives.”—John Norquist\,
Mayor of Milwaukee (1988 to 2004) and former President and CEO of Congress
for the New Urbanism\n\n
