he political gridlock in Washington, D.C., has
turned many opportunities for lawmakers to
work together into an impasse. Fortunately, the
Problems Solvers Caucus, is working to change
this negative narrative and create positive change.
In 2017, the Problem Solvers Caucus became
an independent member-driven House caucus,
co-chaired by Rep. Josh Gottheimer (D-NJ) and Rep.
Tom Reed (R-NY). The 44-member group focuses on
developing relationships across the aisle to find bipartisan solutions to legislative and policy issues. In late 2018,
the Problem Solvers led the effort to make important

changes to House rules, clearing the way for debate and
votes on more bipartisan bills in the next Congress.
The caucus has many examples of bipartisan accomplishments. Since its creation the Caucus has proposed
or supported bipartisan proposals on health care,
infrastructure, immigration, border security, and gun
safety, and was a participant in budget negotiations.
Rep. Gottheimer and Rep. Reed recently met with
CTA President and CEO Gary Shapiro in the Cannon
House Office Building to talk about their work with
the Problem Solvers Caucus. This interview has been
edited for length.
