Cold weather brings out lawmakers’ tweets

With temperatures around 12 degrees in Washington, lawmakers, from both warm and cold climes, took to Twitter Wednesday morning to voice some dismay, and some hope, about the cold. 

Connecticut Sen. Chris Murphy (D) had some trouble getting back to the city. 

Murphy might be used to cold weather in New England, but Texas Sen. John Cornyn (R) had another reaction. 

Despite the cold, Sen. Jack Reed (D-R.I.) is looking forward to warmer times, and some music.
