FILE - Rep. Pete Welch, D-Vt., speaks on Capitol Hill in Washington. Welch won both the Democratic and Republican nominations in August 2016 for re-election that year to a sixth term.

Congressman Peter Welch has positioned himself as a Democrat who wants to work with Republicans. Polls suggest that's what Americans want from Washington, but so far bipartisanship has been hard to find in a polarized Congress.

Friday on next Vermont Edition, Welch is our guest to look at the turbulence in health care and immigration policy, and what he sees as the path forward.

Broadcast live on Friday, August 4, 2017; rebroadcast at 7 p.m.
