This episode makes a powerful case for compromise and pragmatism as crucial ingredients in passing laws and getting things done. 

Our guests are Democrat Abigail Spanberger and Republican Brian Fitzpatrick, who are both members of the Problem Solvers Caucus: 62 Members of Congress, evenly split between Republicans and Democrats.
