This week on Highway to Hill: We’ve been a little distracted by a lot of important but symbolic stuff over the past few weeks -- A250, reflecting pools, UFC fights, etc -- but Congress is still a lawmaking institution, so SoRelle and Charlie get to the bottom of all the lawmaking Congress did and didn’t do in between all the 4th of July fireworks; and whether fireworks on the House and Senate floor will continue to make the lives of party leadership a waking nightmare.
