I am interested in how state political institutions shape health and safety policy in the United States. My current project is to examine the implementation of health care reform in the American states. I also plan to continue my research on the effectiveness of traffic safety laws in the American states (such as seat belt, drinking and driving, and motorcycle helmet laws). In addition, I will continue my research on state legislative institutions (such as term limits and legislative professionalism) and their effects on representation, legislator behavior, and policymaking.
