The "Dingell Jingle" is out!

One thing we’ll miss after Rep. John Dingell retires at the end of this year will be his “jingles.”

Dingell releases these jingles each year for the holidays. The longest serving member in U.S. Congress  kills it on Twitter. And today he announced - via Twitter, of course - that his annual jingle is ready:

Dingell will likely spend a bit of time in the hospital as he recovers from a broken hip.

Something he makes light of in his jingle:

But at 88 years old, balance gets a bit awkward, I hurt my hip in a fall, and ended up at the doctor. On the mend, I’m recovering for at least a few weeks But I’m still working hard, via phone calls and tweets Keeping up with my people, finding ways to say hello I figured out Google Glass. But does anyone still use Ello?

You can find the whole jingle on Buzzfeed.

Mark Brush was the station's Digital Media Director. He succumbed to a year-long battle with glioblastoma, an aggressive brain cancer, in March 2018. He was 49 years old.
