Behind the Scenes of Congress with Congressman Mike Thompson Hello Sonoma!

What is Washington D.C. like as a Congressman? How does a member of Congress balance living in Washington and their district? What should community members know about the type of partnerships necessary for an idea to become a law? How do members of Congress spend their free (if they have any) time?



Having served our community for over 25 years, Congressman Mike Thompson is an excellent candidate to answer these questions and more. In this episode, we talk about the ins and outs of congressional life, as well as Mr. Thompson's own journey including his time in Vietnam and visits back to the country, the importance of partnership in national leadership, and his love of cycling in our district.
