More talk of impeachment on Capitol Hill didn’t keep President Joe Biden from welcoming Republicans to the congressional picnic Tuesday evening.
There was no shortage of members from both sides of the aisle making the trip down Pennsylvania Avenue to the South Lawn of the White House, from Republican Reps. Aaron Bean of Florida, Bill Huizenga of Michigan and Don Bacon of Nebraska to more Democrats than one might be able to count.
The Senate had robust bipartisan representation as well, from as far to the left as Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., to Republicans Mike Lee of Utah and Rand Paul of Kentucky.
