C-SPAN In The Classroom Podcast: Introducing the 118th Congress

C-SPAN is "a good thing for our democracy and our republic." These words, uttered by Rep. Chip Roy (R-TX) on CNN's "State of the Union," followed a momentous and historic election for the 55th Speaker of the House of Representatives.



This week, the C-SPAN Education team sits down with Ben O'Connell, C-SPAN's Director of Editorial Operations. In this episode, we review the start of the 118th Congress on January 3rd, highlight the many historical moments that followed in both the House and the Senate, consider ongoing legislative goals and priorities of both parties in this new era of divided government, and discuss C-SPAN's role through it all.
