Lake Como, Italy, is a world-renowned vacation destination, with lush greenery, glittering blue water, quaint towns stacked on sun-drenched mountainsides, delicious food and wine and, of course, George Clooney’s villa.
And increasingly, members of Congress are going there for free.
The nonprofit Aspen Institute is sending lawmakers — and their spouses — to a Lake Como villa owned by the Rockefeller Foundation, where the members learn about food insecurity, climate change and artificial intelligence.
