John Boehner just does not care. [View all]

So far, the 113th Congress is the most unproductive in history. Nearly eight months in, just 22 bills have passed Congress and been sent to the President—worse than the famous “Do-Nothing Congress.”

But even though the House of Representatives has worked for just 87 days this year, Speaker John Boehner just called for a five-week recess and skipped town to go golfing with Donald Trump.

No action on jobs? No problem. No action on immigration? He doesn’t care.

The GOP believes they cannot be voted out of office They think nobody will blame them for this.
