Chuck Brown Day shows Congress can agree on something chill and cultural amid the chaos. Go-Go grooves deserve their moment in the sun, no matter your party.

If Congress spent as much time supporting our veterans as it does supporting go-go music, we’d have a tune-up in national priorities. Still, respect to the man and his art.
