Attendees at Tuesday night’s first annual Congressional Record performance, which saw members of Congress join professional musicians on stage to play before a captive audience of staffers and lobbyists, were reminded that all politics are vocal.
It turns out that when their voices aren’t too hoarse from stumping for votes or shouting down their colleagues on the floor, a few U.S. representatives can carry a tune. And even those who couldn’t hit a single note Tuesday were singing from the same choirbook: Extolling the importance of arts education and continued congressional funding for it.
(Full disclosure: Roll Call was the night’s media sponsor.)
