Congress Goes Prime Time

The Hill: “There’s a new trend on Capitol Hill: Contentious committee hearings in prime time. Recently, House committees have started hearings after dinner, often at 7 p.m.”

“C-SPAN has covered 35 prime-time hearings over the past 31 years. Five of those hearings have occurred since May 2014, making this year the biggest in prime-time hearing scheduling since 1995.”
