Two Michigan lawmakers from opposite sides of the aisle came together to urge the importance of unity and kindness after a "toxic" year in Washington and across the country.
Democratic Rep. Debbie Dingell and Republican Rep. Fred Upton sat down for a joint interview on CNN's "State of the Union" to reflect on a tumultuous year in Washington and to call on Americans to, as Dingell says, "get back to just remembering how much we have in common."
"It's pretty toxic, there's no question about it," Upton said of the climate in Washington. "It's a pretty toxic place. I've never seen anything like this before."
During the interview, Dingell reacted to a threatening voicemail message sent to her office. In the message, the caller insults her repeatedly, naming her a "f**king foul b*tch" and adding, "I pray to God, if you've got any children, they die in your face."
