The closure of the 37-year-old Letty Owings Center comes as substance use during pregnancy has increased
WASHINGTON, D.C. -- Last night I was at the Capitol to cover President Obama's healthcare address to Congress and got a chance afterward to interview two political opposites from this part of the country: Reps. Jay Inslee, D-Silicon Sound, and Dave Reichert, R-Silicon Sound. Inslee talked up the speech, while Reichert gave it mixed reviews tending towards an overall pan. I'll be writing more about the speech and the reaction to it later today, so stay tuned.
