Seventeen Republican freshman reps wrote a letter congratulating President Joe Biden hours before he was sworn in, according to NPR.
“[W]e trust that the next four years will present your administration and the 117th Congress with numerous challenges and successes, and we are hopeful that – despite our ideological differences – we may work together,” the letter said, according to NPR.
