Politics and Policy on the Potomac

Senator Ben Cardin (D-MD)

Mark Bloomfield Season 4 Episode 7

Mark welcomes Senator Ben Cardin (D-MD) for a conversation on his thoughts on five decades in public service.

Over the last fifty years, Senator Cardin has earned titles of distinction including “Mr. Speaker” as the youngest Speaker of the Maryland House of Delegates in history, “Mr. Chairman” of the Maryland House of Delegates Ways & Means Committee, "Mr. Chairman" of the Senate Small Business and Entrepreneurship Committee and “Mr. Chairman” of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee. 

Senator Cardin has been a frequent guest of ACCF's "Washington's Last Salon". Regrettably for us and for our country, he’s retiring, but we are happy for him because as he told us, “there is more to life than being a public official.”
