From a story on politico.com by Timothy Cama headlined “The meteorologist telling Congress about climate change”:

Rep. Eric Sorensen brings a rare resume to Congress. The freshman lawmaker, who represents part of the Quad Cities area of Illinois, is, by his own accounting, the first former television meteorologist in Congress in more than four decades. (The last one was Rep. Dale Milford (D-Texas), who left in 1979.)

Sorensen is a member of the Agriculture Committee and the Science, Space and Technology Committee. He represents a very purple district and is being targeted by Republicans in next year’s elections.
