WASHINGTON — It felt almost like a graduation ceremony Wednesday at the final hearing of the House Select Committee on the Modernization of Congress, as witnesses and lawmakers alike celebrated their wins and dreamed of the future.
“This is the most important work going on in Congress today,” said Diane Hill of the Partnership for Public Service.
Hill is part of a constellation of about four dozen “fix Congress” groups that have closely followed the committee since its inception in 2019 and want to see its mission continue.
