Rothenberg added that Mr. Walz went out of his way to get her and a friend a tour of the White House.

“He had to walk to the White House, show his ‘I’m a congressman’ badge so that we could do the tour. And then he went back to his job of being a congressman,” Rothenberg said. “I still think he’d do that today, by the way.”
