亨利·韦克斯曼

1961级  1964法学博士  政治家  监察人员  人民英雄

他忠实地执行他的监督任务

就像其他提到的政治家，民主党代表亨利·韦克斯曼被称为“变化的推动者”。他是UCLA1961级的学生，1964年获得法学博士学位。但是，韦克斯曼拥有大多数人没有的东西：名副其实。作为俄国移民的孙子，他是美国加州第33个国会选区的代表，亦是一位无畏的，让他人畏惧的监察人，监管国会中一些权势部门。从1975年1起，他就在华盛顿工作，一直为全国健康保险，烟草监管，空气和水质量，农药监管，处方药法案和生育权不断斗争。因为被这个国家称为民主人士“艾略特·尼斯”的人，百万美国民众变得更健康，安全，呼吸更洁净的空气。

Henry Waxman

Class of 1961，JD 1964

He Puts The Watch in Watchdog.

Like too many other politicians to mention, Democratic Rep. Henry Waxman ‘61, J.D. ‘64 has been described as “a driving force for change.” But Waxman’s got something most of the others do not: a real claim to that fame. This grandson of Russian immigrants is U.S. Representative for California’s 33rd congressional district (which includes UCLA) and a fearless–and feared–watchdog on some of Congress’ most powerful committees. He has served in Washington since 1975 and fought relentlessly for universal health insurance, tobacco regulation, air and water quality, pesticides regulation, prescription drugs legislation, reproductive rights and more. Millions of Americans are healthier, safer and breathe cleaner air today because of the man The Nation called “the Democrats’ Eliot Ness.”‍
