Back to DC

I'm headed back to Washington tonight and will be there through next week attending meetings that include a retreat for speakers and majority leaders. I'll have dinner with Mike Ross on Tuesday, and I'll have the opportunity to run over and vote with him at the Capitol. On Thursday, we'll meet with former Speaker Newt Gingrich and will have a discussion with former state legislators turned members of Congress on how to make the relationship between the federal and state governments more effective.
