The House was out, but with the leaked draft ruling suggesting that five Supreme Court justices support overturning Roe v. Wade, it was a busy week nonetheless.

This week’s Congressional Hits and Misses sees Sen. Bob Menendez singing Happy Birthday in a hearing, Sen. Jon Tester opining about an electric tractor, Sen. Tom Carper giving “May the Fourth” wishes to his panel and more.
