Many federal agencies in Washington D.C. serve communities across the country — but how can government officials in D.C. know what the main issues and concerns are for Americans in these places when they work thousands of miles away from them?

Congresswoman Ashley Hinson (R-IA) and Congressman Jared Golden (D-ME) discuss how their bipartisan bill, the Strategic Withdrawal of Agencies for Meaningful Placement (SWAMP) Act, is dedicated to relocating federal jobs out of Washington D.C. and closer to the communities they serve — allowing Americans to feel more connected to federal agencies. They also discuss the need to cut unnecessary spending on Capitol Hill, and how many lawmakers are willing to work across the aisle to find where this should be done.
