The panelists paid tribute to former First Lady Barbara Bush, who passed away earlier this week at age 92. The conversation also turned to a new Senate rule change that allows babies to be brought onto the chamber floor during votes. The change was spurred by Sen. Tammy Duckworth, who recently gave birth to baby Maile.
