Who's Blogging  |
Miller, 61, is a Bay Area liberal, a labor booster and one of the closest allies of Rep. Nancy Pelosi, soon to be the House speaker.
But he formed a relationship with President Bush early in his presidency over their mutual frustration with inadequate classroom standards. Miller helped to write the House version of Bush's No Child Left Behind bill but has since complained that funding is inadequate.
Despite his left-leaning politics, in recent years Miller has helped to transform his committee from one of the most partisan in the House to one of the most productive under the chairmanship of John A. Boehner (Ohio), the No. 2 House Republican.
