(WASHINGTON, D.C.) --- The 111th Congress and YouTube have announced the launch of official Congressional YouTube channels, including a channel featuring video of U.S. Senator Byron Dorgan (D-ND).
Each Member of the Senate and House will have the opportunity to create and control their own YouTube channel that citizens can locate on a Google Map interface on two new platforms – The Senate Hub (http://youtube.com/senatehub) and The House Hub (http://youtube.com/househub) – making it easy for people to interact with videos that offer an inside look at their elected officials in action on Capitol Hill.
Several of Senator Dorgan’s videos are featured on The Senate Hub. His YouTube page (http://www.youtube.com/senatordorgan) will be updated regularly with footage from floor debates, committee hearings, interviews, and other official events.
“This new YouTube video program offers another good way to stay in touch with constituents,” Dorgan said.
