Mandatory Minimums
Original Airdate: 05/03/00
A newly energized President Bartlet bucks tradition and throws down the gauntlet when he names two campaign finance reformers to the Federal Election Commission despite threats from his political opponents to introduce embarrassing legislation that would dare him not to sign. But the President wants to go further and floats a controversial new drug enforcement policy. In the meantime, the early reactions to his first announcement are not encouraging, especially from top-notch pollster Al Kiefer who is hired to take the public’s “temperature”. Kiefer’s arrival means his attractive cohort, Joey Lucas, accompanies him, and she again draws a smitten Josh’s attention. Toby agrees to seek out his ex-wife, a breezy congresswoman, to gauge her response to any future narcotics legislation that would emphasize prevention over enforcement. Leo — uncomfortably aware of his own brush with drugs — agrees to be the Chief Executive’s front man for positioning the high-voltage issue of revising the drug laws.
