Marty Beech

Marty Beech anchors legislative strategy as a seasoned political liaison whose voice converges with Capitol Hill allies in White House war rooms. Toby dispatches urgent reports from Beech's hour-long huddle with Dick Rush, Ed, and Henry, where liaisons lock arms in unanimous push for a lame duck session—defying Senate backlash to ram through Test Ban Treaty ratification. Beech's counsel ignites Oval Office frenzy, channeling Hill consensus into Bartlet's nuclear brinkmanship, his offstage influence rippling through senior staff's desperate vote hunts and leak maneuvers.
