Case Appears As Special Guest On C-SPAN's Washington Journal TV Show

(Washington, DC) -- U.S. Representative Ed Case (Hawai‘i-First District) this morning appeared on C-SPAN’s nationally-televised program, Washington Journal. The live half-hour show features a single member of Congress addressing questions from the host, followed by direct questions from the viewing audience across the country alternating among Republicans, Democrats and independents. Case covered a range of topics, including: ·        “Clearly classified information” that should not have been disclosed in a group chat among the highest-ranking administration officials leading up to, during and after the recent bombing mission in Yemen; ·        The budget and tax measure under consideration in Congress as “not reflecting the values” of most Americans; and, ·        “The biggest missing piece” in government today, being a Congress that is not providing effective oversight and a check and balance on Presidential actions. Case also addressed viewer questions including: ·        Protecting Medicare and Social Security; ·        Widespread public disapproval of Congress and both political parties; ·        His bipartisan Problem Solvers Caucus’ focus on finding solutions to everyday American concerns; ·        The urgent need to address our federal deficit and debt crisis; ·        The “Department of Government Efficiency’s” efforts to destroy rather than improve large and critical parts of the federal government; and, ·        His continuing efforts to protect our oceans including our coral reefs.
