Fitzpatrick opened the discussion by talking about the make-up of the Problem Solvers Caucus, and the collaborative approach shared by all its Members. So that’s why I’m a big believer in this group.”Fitzpatrick, who was elected to the House in 2016, has served as Republican Co-Chair of the Problem Solvers Caucus since 2021. We have to really work at building trust and the relationships necessary for us to have these conversations to work across party lines. Suozzi, who was also first elected to Congress in 2016, has served as Democratic Co-Chair of the Problem Solvers Caucus since the beginning of this year. Following their opening remarks, the pair was asked a number of questions, including one about the legislative priorities of the Problem Solvers Caucus moving forward this year.
