[jwp-video n="1"]

It’s all about communication in this week’s Congressional Hits and Misses as Rep. Frank Pallone Jr. throws some sly digs at the Senate, Sen. Cory Booker shows he doesn’t need a mic to preside over the Senate floor, House panels have issues with the mute button, Senate Majority Leader Charles E. Schumer’s Wire-era flip phone makes another appearance (maybe Stringer Bell is on the line?), House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy scoffs at Peloton bikes, and more.
