After a punishing mid-term election Congressional Democrats are taking stock of what is and isn't possible this year.
San Antonio Congressman Joaquin Castro joined us in-studio to address the issues he felt passionately about and to describe the demeanor of the new Congress.
With a legislative branch increasingly vocal and active in the realm of foreign policy, the Congress Castro described is decidedly feisty.
Castro was one of several Democrats who skipped Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's address to both houses of Congress. He explains his decision, thought at times unpopular, and why he thought the Netanyahu visit was inappropriate.
