U.S. Congressman Earl Blumenauer shared his daily ride to his office on Capitol Hill with a reporter from National Public Radio yesterday.

Here’s one of the exchanges they had while riding the streets of D.C.:
NPR:

“Why hasn’t Congress been able to do anything on climate change?”

Blumenauer:

“There is a huge gap here on Capitol Hill — even thought the rhetoric has changed — the mindset is going to require some significant adjustment. This stuff takes time…”

Listen to the entire interview (4:19) at NPR.org.
