A joke that is so overused it's not even funny anymore: Congress
can't get anything done. But with a new split Congress, the joke
might be reality, and Arizona’s congressional delegation is helping
set the tone.  Republican Rep. Andy Biggs helped lead a
rebellious faction within the GOP in a fight over the House
speakership that forced days of drama over that normally routine
matter. Republican Paul Gosar is among those who have clamored
for aggressive investigation of the Biden administration. Sen.
Kyrsten Sinema’s defection from the Democratic Party gives the
Senate a new operating dynamic as well. As Capitol Hill adjusts to
a new normal, important issues like the debt ceiling and border
security hang over the nation’s unresolved policy agenda. This week
on The Gaggle, a podcast by The Arizona Republic
and azcentral.com, host Ron Hansen is joined by two
political experts, Wendy Schiller of Brown University and Norman
Ornstein of the American Enterprise Institute, to dissect what to
expect from Congress this session. Learn more about your ad
