WHAT DO MEMBERS OF CONGRESS ACTUALLY DO ALL DAY? - Three Days with Rep. Jake Auchincloss

What is life actually like for a member of Congress?That question has been gnawing at me for some time. I’m a politics reporter, and despite spending so much time talking to politicians, or reporting in and around Washington, D.C., or following the news, I think my honest answer is I just don’t know. Or, I should say, I didn’t know. That was until a couple months ago, when I got to spend three straight days with Rep. Jake Auchincloss (D-MA). Auchincloss is a three-term member of Congress; he’s young, just 37, and he’s noted that he’s the youngest Democratic father in Congress. He also happens to be a subscriber to the Tangle newsletter. Rep. Auchincloss wrote me an email. The email was a response to a Tangle newsletter about healthcare, and he was criticizing a position I had taken. We struck up a correspondence, and then it suddenly hit me: Would he do let us shadow him? We got in touch with his press secretary, and I shot him a message on the side encouraging him to play ball. It didn’t take much convincing; to my surprise and delight, he was happy to have us come down and follow him around for a day (which ended up being more like 72 hours). So, today, we’re releasing a documentary-style video on YouTube about the time we spent with him. As a final note, if you’re an elected official reading this (or work for one, or know one personally) and would be open to talking with us about doing a similar “day in the life” video, please reach out to will@readtangle.com. We’re particularly interested in shadowing an elected Republican — a member of Congress, governor, or state representative — for our next installment in what we hope is the first of many such videos.
