This weekend, 52 new members of the 107th Congress mark their first official weekend in office. Host Lisa Simeone checks in with two freshmen in the House of Representatives to see how they are adjusting to life on the Hill after being sworn in this past Wednesday. Susan Davis is a Democrat from the 49th district in California; Adam Putnam, who also has the distinction of being the youngest member of Congress, is a Republican from the 12th district in Florida.
