Governors emphasize importance of bipartisanship at Reagan Library

(The Center Square) – It pays to be both bipartisan and persistent, according to a Democratic governor who once sneaked into the White House in the back of U.S. Rep. Steny Hoyer’s car.

“I was rolled back there like a burrito,” said New Mexico Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham, who was then a member of the House. Lujan Grisham, the chair of the Hispanic Congressional Caucus, was determined to be part of a West Wing meeting for which she wasn’t invited.
