U.S. Lawmakers Check In On Facebook During Recess

If Facebook is any indication, members of Congress are staying busy during their August recess.

President Obama isn’t the only one getting away. Members of Congress are staying active during the annual August recess, if their Facebook posts are any indication.

August is the time when lawmakers traditionally say goodbye to Washington, D.C., and return to their districts to re-connect with constituents, conduct official travel and even take a little vacation themselves.

Congress on Facebook, the social media company’s page that tracks members use of Facebook, is providing regular updates, or postcards, from the recess.

Here’s a look at what our elected officials are up to and how they are sharing the information on Facebook.
