The Embassy used to handle stuff like that, but I don't believe they do these days. However, I seem to remember someone telling me they'd arranged for a Pentagon tour through the Embassy of Ireland. Their website probably has a link to "visiting washington, dc" or something like that.
And you never know---if your TD or council member has a connection in an office here they might be able to work something out regarding a WH tour. All it takes is a phone call to a Rep here and you'd be on the list. (the reverse worked for me on international trips)
