The 116th Congress
Land Of The Free
"Suppose you were an idiot, and suppose you were a member of Congress-but I repeat myself."
Samuel Clemens
The 116th Congress is a record-breaking one. The House of Representatives holds a record number of women and minorities, while the Senate boasts among its ranks more new faces than usual. New crops of fiery young legislators tangle with the vanguards of the establishment, as legislators seek to turn mandate into policy, to find success for themselves and their districts, and to bring down their foes by whatever means are required.
Get in, get votes, get things done, and see if you've got what it takes to get the world's most infamous legislative body back in gear.
