Tweeting the WH luau

Before today’s cap-and-trade show down in the House, members headed over to the White House for the annual picnic. This year it was luau-themed.

Several members of Congress tweeted about the friendly atmosphere at the event. Sen. Claire McCaskill (D-Mo.) tweeted:

Congressional picnic at the WH was hot & crowded, but nice to meet so many family members. Also great to see so many Republicans there.

Rep. Mark Kirk (R-Ill.) tweeted and included a picture of some friends:

Finally, Rep. Eric Paulsen (R-Minn.) said his girls had a wonderful time with the first daughters. He tweeted:

At White House congressional picnic. My 4 girls hoola hooping with Malia/Sasha and got to meet the President. Good bipartisanship
