NEW MEXICO (KRQE) – He is New Mexico’s second longest-serving U.S. Senator and now retired, Jeff Bingaman is talking about his 30 years in Congress. He’s been retired for nearly ten years now and has written about it in his new book ‘Breakdown’ which has lessons for a congress in crisis. “It’s on the institution of Congress and the practices or tactics adopted beginning in the mid 90’s I think have undermined the ability of congress to function as it should,” said Bingaman.
