Witnessed democratic process first-hand with a impromptu visit to the US Capitol Hill. We were able to see the senate vote on a controversial immigration reform bill in 2007.
Usually visitor passes must be obtained to visit the public galleries each day, we would not have bothered as we expected to find long queues that summer.
But the Senate was in night session and was sitting late at night (indicated when the flag is lowered). We went to the entrance located in the Capitol Visitor Center and being international visitors were able to attend the session of the Senate. No cameras, listening devices etc.
The Senate Chamber and the Brumidi Corridors are v. impressive.
