The Day the Rats Vetoed Congress

published 23 June 2020

The Day the Rats Vetoed Congress is Ralph Nader’s fable of struggle and strategy, tenacity and triumph for our troubled times. But more than just a story, it can also serve as a “how to” guide to effect political change — from a pied piper who’s done it time and time again. Gleefully and generously illustrated by famed political cartoonist Mr. Fish, who pulls no punches in bringing his stunning graphic sensibilities to bear on this modern tale of vice and virtue.
