The Hottest Holiday Parties on the Hill
Are you on the list?
It’s the holiday season, which in D.C. means parties for politicos, hosted by nearly every lobbying shop and communications firm in town.
Despite the busy days of legislating ahead, the party starts this week and goes through the end of the year.
We’ve compiled the ones we know about, but we’re sure the invitations for some others haven’t gotten here yet. Have more to add to the list? Email HOH@rollcall.com.
