| Beginning in the early 1970s with original hosts Jack Edwards, Bob Sikes, and Trent Lott, the “Congressional Report” is the longest-running public affairs program of its kind in the country. Each week, Congressman Bonner and his guests discuss important events in Washington and how they will impact the nation and the residents of the First Congressional District. |
