Conversations with California’s congressmen and women – Rep. Tom McClintock
Republican Congressman Tom McClintock
As members of Congress get ready to go back to DC after their recess ends in early September, they're preparing to deal with a number of issues. Among them are the unprecedented rate of unemployment, the continuing economic downturn, and environmental issues. To top it all, mid-term elections are rapidly approaching, elections which could make or break the Democrats’ House majority.
