We’re sincerely grateful for the continued positive response to This Week in Washington. Issue Four begins a two part interview with Congressman Erik Paulsen (R MN), a member of the House Ways and Means Committee. Congressman Paulsen participated in the 2016 and 2017 Arizona Chamber fly-ins, and agreed to discuss with Steve Gordon how he sees the upcoming debates over tax reform, healthcare, and trade. We also have included an overview article on defense spending written by Al Jackson, a long time strategic consultant to Total Spectrum who has been involved in the defense and high technology community for almost 20 years. Dana Marston provides the latest on the Cabinet’s confirmation process. With Congress in recess this week, we’ll provide a schedule update next week. Heard on the Hill returns to keep our focus on news, and not drama and noise.
