My latest Roll Call column calls for a major change in scheduling: moving to a five-day work week in Washington, Monday to Friday nine to five, with three weeks on and one week off to go back to the district. The current schedule, two or two-and-a-half days in DC each week, exacerbates partisan and ideological conflict and reduces any meaningful deliberation and debate. The full column can be found here: www.rollcall.com
