Welcoming American Irish Democratic Members of Congress

Irish American Democrats and leaders from the Irish American community gathered on Capitol Hill to celebrate the new Democratic American Irish Members of the 114th Congress. In an evening hosted by our friends at the Council on American Irish Relations we saluted Congressman Brendan Boyle and Congresswoman Kathleen Rice. 

With over 100 guests in attendance, the evening also celebrated those members of Congress who would be returning to the 114th Congress for their second term.

We are grateful to Congressman Richie Neal and Congressman Joseph Crowley for all of their work to make the evening a success.
