On Monday, August 1, 2011 Chloe Kondrich went to the U.S. Capitol and met with Congresswoman Cathy McMorris Rodgers who is the founder and co-chair of the Congressional Down Syndrome Caucus. It was an extremely busy and historical day at the Capitol, and Congresswoman McMorris Rodgers spent over 1 hour with Chloe and our family. Chloe signed and presented "Cathy" with a copy of the book "Making a Case for Life" which Chloe is featured on and in, and she also gave the Congresswoman a copy of "Facing Life Head On - Going to Bat for Down Syndrome" the national TV episode Chloe starred in. Congresswoman McMorris Rodgers then took Chloe onto the floor of the US House of Representatives and let many members of Congress see the abilities and beauty of a child with Down syndrome. The day was truly magical as we watched from the House gallery, and we are all very fortunate and blessed to have Congresswoman McMorris Rodger's leadership and voice in Washington DC.
