Boehner’s Continued Chaos

Speaker Boehner’s “New American Congress” seems to bring about new failures and manufactured crises almost every day. After spending weeks playing political games with our national security and threatening to shut down the Department of Homeland Security, House Republicans are now bogged down with infighting  and dysfunction over defense funding in their own budget – so much so that they can’t even get their budget out of committee for a floor vote.

“If passing a budget and protecting our national security are the most important things a Congress can do, as Republicans have long contended, then this Republican Congress is currently failing,” said DCCC spokesperson Matt Thornton. “Middle class families pay the price for Republicans’ endless parade of infighting and dysfunction. It’s long past time for Speaker Boehner and his caucus to stop the games and gimmicks and finally start governing for the American people.”
