Local congressman and House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer, D-Md., turned 70 on Sunday, so his staff threw him an early birthday party in his Capitol office on Friday.
We hear that a group of reporters followed Hoyer up to the back door of his office after the final series of floor votes. And once the door was closed, they heard Hoyer’s staff erupt with a “surprise!”
The only legislator who outranks Hoyer, Speaker Nancy Pelosi, follows Hoyer into her eighth decade in March of next year.
