by Linda S疣chez (Author), Loretta S疣chez (Author), Richard Buskin (With)

Often considered Congress's "Odd Couple," these warm and witty stories from Congresswomen Linda and Loretta S疣chez are perfect for all young women looking to create a brighter future for themselves--with a foreword from Nancy Pelosi!

By sharing moments from their childhood in Southern California, Linda and Loretta pass on the values and traditions they learned from their parents--immigrants from Mexico who, despite not having graduated high school themselves, made sure all seven of their children went on to graduate from college--that enabled them to conquer challenges and make history in Congress.

Speaking frankly about their professional highs and lows, successes, and the scandals that constituted their distinguished careers, the S疣chez sisters are a testament to us all that the key to realizing your dreams is, above all else, always being true to yourself.

Author Biography

Congresswoman Loretta S疣chez has been a Democratic member of the United State House of Representatives since 1997. Previously a Republican, S疣chez changed parties in 1996, feeling that the Republican Party had lost touch with its constituency. She is the second-ranking Democrat on the Homeland Security Committee and is a member of the Armed Services Committee. Loretta Sanchez is perhaps most known for her controversial 2007 withdrawal from the Congressional Hispanic Caucus, alleging the caucus chairmen treated female members with disrespect. Their very public fight was covered thoroughly in the media, including being parodied on The Colbert Report.

Congresswoman Linda T. S疣chez has been a Democratic member of the United States House of Representative since 2003, when she joined her older sister Loretta, making them the only sisters to ever serve in Congress. She earned her BA in Spanish at the University of California in Berkley and her JD at UCLA, where she was an editor of the Chicano-Latino Law Review. She was an attorney specializing in labor law prior to her public service career.

She is the chair of the Judiciary Subcommittee on Commercial and Administrative Law, a member of the US House Committee on Education and Labor, and a member of the US House Committee on International Relations. In 2005 she was appointed Assistant Minority Whip. She is the Co-Founder and Co-Chair of the Congressional Labor and Working Families Caucus. Stephen Colbert interviewed S疣chez for his series, "Better Know a District", on the Colbert Report in 2006. S疣chez delivered the Spanish version of the Democratic Radio Address on May 6, 2006 and in September 2006 Linda won the title "Funniest Celebrity in Washington."
