Roll Call: John Dingell's 90th is the Party of the Year

Everyone knows John Dingell brings the fun. And bipartisanship and ice cream. 

The Michigan State Society, in cahoots with Dingell's wife, Michigan Rep. Debbie Dingell, threw the Dean a 90th birthday party on Wednesday in the room named after him in the Rayburn Office Building. 

The former congressman, who turns 90 on Friday, told the crowd of members from both sides of the aisle, “I love you all and we all have wonderful memories.” 

The party was complete with a bar and ice cream sundae buffet with various candies and toppings. 

"Someone asked me is she up for the job,” Dingell said while thanking his wife for the party. “There's something you should know about this woman: She can tell you what to do for 35 years.”  

“She's good and smart and the best friend I've ever had,” he added. 

Debbie Dingell succeeded her husband in his congressional seat in 2015.
