Visiting your nation's capital
As Idaho's Senator, I have assisted thousands of Idahoans in making arrangements for tours in Washington, DC. Unfortunately, because congressional tours require a great deal of advance notice, my office is no longer able to request them. For more information about available tours, please see below. To request congressional tours, please contact Senator Mike Crapo.
