Summary

President Trump pens a letter to Congress arguing he does not have to go through Congress to continue the war with Iran. Trump speaks at his first public event since the assassination attempt at the White House Correspondents' Association dinner as new details emerge about the incident. Sens. Peter Welch (D-Vt.) and Roger Marshall (R-Kansas) discuss the problems facing rural communities and how they are working to find bipartisan solutions in a Common Ground conversation.
