Title: Barrycades and shutdowns Post by: PirateVOL on October 03, 2013, 02:30:48 EDT For those thinking the Republicans are at fault.
There have been four Appropriations bills passed by the Republican controlled House: ■Military Construction and Veterans Affairs on June 4, which passed 421-4. This bill cost $158 billion. ■Homeland Security on June 6, which passed 245-182. This bill cost $39 billion. ■Energy and Water on Jule 10, which passed 227-198. This bill cost $30 billion. ■Defense on July 24, which passed 315-109. This bill cost $516 billion. Note two of them were passed with strong bipartisan support. How many have the Democratic controlled Senate passed? ... crickets ... Barry and his lapdog Reid (or is it the other way around?) and their party of NO have REFUSED to do their fizzleing Consitutional and lawful job! Source: Library of Congress |
