Hayes learning in a diverse congressional freshman class

WASHINGTON - Cloistered in a hotel a few blocks from the U.S. Capitol, Representative-elect Jahana Hayes and dozens of incoming members of the next Congress are learning the ropes of their new jobs and getting to know the colleagues they will work with - and sometimes fight with—next year. On Tuesday, Hayes grabbed a hurried lunch in the cafeteria of a U.S. House office building, sharing a table with Republican Rep.-elect Lance Gooden of Texas and a few other freshmen. She chided Gooden for not sorting and recycling his lunchroom trash. “We just dump it all in the same bin in Texas,” Gooden said.
