Putting political differences aside and finding common ground is one Central Illinois lawmaker's goal once the Biden Administration is sworn-in; however, that depends on what issues the new administration focuses on out of the gate. 

Recently re-elected to congress representing the 18th District, Congressman Darin LaHood says that if the Biden Administration focuses on transportation, COVID-relief, and immigration reform, issues could get passed on bipartisan support.

Ray LaHood, Darin's' father, served as the Transportation Secretary under the Obama Administration. Darin says he's talked with his father about President-elect Joe Biden and what the administration will bring to the table. Darin LaHood added that he thinks the Biden Administration will find common ground on a second COVID-19 relief package once sworn into office.
