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 wi th 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 Nor quist\, the late Wisconsin Governor Patrick Lucey and former Governor Jim Doyle\, and the late U.S. Senator Edward Kennedy.\n\nRiemer is the Foun ding Director of Community Advocates Public Policy Institute\, which is co -sponsoring his book launch at 7 p.m. on Wednesday\, November 6\, at Boswe ll Book Company\, 2559 N. Downer Ave.\, Milwaukee.\n\nRSVPs are appreciate d 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\, th e book makes a highly persuasive case for why a sweeping redesign of the N ew Deal model—a New Deal 3.0—is now necessary to undo the inequality and u ncertainly that are tearing our country apart. It makes a compelling argum ent for how to get America back on a path of equitable and enduring econom ic security for unemployed\, underemployed\, working\, disabled\, and reti red seniors (including health insurance\, long-term care\, and education r eforms)\, and how to more effectively regulate markets to prevent damage t o the environment\, workers\, consumers\, and investors.”\n\nAdvance Pr aise for Putting Government in Its Place\n\n“David Riemer provides the reader a challenging diagnosis of our public condition today and then off ers his fresh and his original vision for a better tomorrow. A book every candidate and every citizen should read before the 2020 election.”—Mark Sh ields\, PBS NewsHour political analyst and syndicated columnist\n\n“David Riemer does an excellent job identifying the challenges America faces in c rafting a New Deal 3.0. And he takes an important step further\, by presen ting solutions\, sometimes provocative ones\, to move our nation forward. An engaging read.”—Tom Barrett\, Mayor of Milwaukee\n\n“David Riemer is br illiant and is a rare bird. Very few people argue for an economy that incl udes everyone and uses the word ‘justice.’ David pulls it all together\, f rom FDR to right now. He gives a map for economic justice and tells us how to get it done. This book is smart and wide. Read it.”—Peter Edelman\, Ca rmack Waterhouse Professor of Law and Public Policy\, Georgetown Law Cente r\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 fo r anyone who cares about the state of our union.”—Kenneth A. Germanson\, P resident Emeritus\, Wisconsin Labor History Society\n\n“David Riemer’s new book is a must read for anyone interested in federal social programs’ pub lic policy in the 21st century. First\, it provides a historical comprehen sive account and superb analysis of how we got to our current programs and their respective structure. His legal and public policy training and expe rience form the basis for his ideas and prescriptions for what our country needs to change—they would be considered ‘disruptive’ in today’s parlance —to better serve our residents. Though not all will find David’s perspecti ve to fit their own\, all will find his contribution a compelling discours e and one that we should seriously consider.”—Enrique E. Figueroa\, Ph.D.\ , Emeritus\, Associate Professor\, Department of Urban Planning\, Universi ty 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 De al 3.0\, clearly delineates the successes and failures of FDR’s New Deal a nd the many follow-on policies that came after World War II. But\, perhaps most importantly\, he offers in his work thoughtful ideas and policy pres criptions for a New Deal 3.0 that he convincingly argues would ‘create a c omprehensive structure of economic security for all Americans.’ Leaders in state capitals and Washington\, D.C.\, should take heed\; Riemer’s work w arrants a close review.”—Michael Morgan\, former Secretary of Revenue\, St ate of Wisconsin\n\n“It is important to give credit for massive sea policy changes in the basic ‘social contract’ of government with its citizenry. But government’s duty is to continually evaluate whether what served best in the past serves best for the future. Riemer’s book compels us to do jus t that. And he goes yet a step further by posing what a better government\ , a better future could look like. That is why it ought to be a ‘must read ’ for all of us citizens.”—Kathleen Falk\, Dane County Executive (1997-201 1) and former Regional Director\, U.S. Department of Health and Human Serv ices\n\n“So much rhetoric today is about good vs. evil. Sadly\, sometimes that’s appropriate\, but if you want to actually improve government policy outcomes read David Riemer’s Putting Government in Its Place. Mayors\, go vernors\, legislators\, policy analysts\, and concerned citizens will be i nspired when they’re reminded that with thoughtfulness and determination p ublic policy can significantly improve people’s lives.”—John Norquist\, Ma yor of Milwaukee (1988 to 2004) and former President and CEO of Congress f or the New Urbanism X-WR-RELCALID:b5e252aa41acda22073178769686dc8f X-WR-TIMEZONE:America/Chicago BEGIN:VTIMEZONE TZID:America/Chicago BEGIN:STANDARD TZNAME:CST DTSTART:20191103T020000 TZOFFSETFROM:-0500 TZOFFSETTO:-0600 RDATE:20201101T020000 END:STANDARD BEGIN:DAYLIGHT TZNAME:CDT DTSTART:20190310T020000 TZOFFSETFROM:-0600 TZOFFSETTO:-0500 RDATE:20200308T020000 RDATE:20210314T020000 END:DAYLIGHT END:VTIMEZONE BEGIN:VEVENT UID:218a98f3-cc3c-46a3-a4e9-604d221c02ac DTSTAMP:20260429T151638Z DESCRIPTION:Franklin Delano Roosevelt’s New Deal changed the course of hist ory and fundamentally altered the role of the U.S. federal government.
