No, the GOP-Run House of Representatives Has Not Been a "Do-Nothing House"

[mikegriffith1]

I agree that the ultra-MAGA Republicans are being unreasonable, but it is hardly fair to call the GOP-controlled House of Representatives a "do nothing" House that has refused to compromise and that has gotten nothing done. That is simply false.

Below are some of the bills that the House has passed under the McCarthy/Johnson Speakership, since January 2023 until now, not counting the budget compromise bill and the continuing resolutions that have been passed to keep the government open--and all of the bills below were sent to the Senate and then signed into law by President Biden:

HB4366

Pass

Making appropriations for military construction, the Department of Veterans Affairs, and related agencies for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2024, and for other purposes.

OH MY GHOD LOOK AT ALL THE MONEY THEY SPENT!!!!

 

[John Edgar Slow Horses]

This GOP House has been nearly worthless and certainly of harm to the American people.

 

[rightwinger]

Well they did show Pics of Hunter Bidens Dik

I guess you could call that an accomplishment

You two are extreme, blind partisans. You are as biased and closed-minded as the ultra-MAGA Republicans whom you correctly accuse of being unwilling to admit that Biden has done anything good. It is radical partisans like you who are part of the problem. People like you are the reason our political debate has become so poisoned.

If this is what you call legislative "progress" or "accomplishment", then Republicans are in big trouble.
Cause this is pretty much a routine, do nothing list of "accomplishments". Quite a few of these bills have Democrat support too.

Golly, Thanks...

1 year and nearly three months and they've accomplished almost a week's worth of work.

I suppose they'll hang it right next to Trump's health care plan and the SCOTUS ethics plan.

It is absolutely "fair to call the GOP-controlled House of Representatives a 'do nothing' House that has refused to compromise and that has gotten nothing done. That is simply true.'

When it refuses to compromise, the GOP fails.

And you see endlessly, people fronted to run for office as Republicans whose ulterior motives seem to be different than advertised. It is not easy to be one in D.C. Most of the Progressive media/entertainment fifth column has Republicans with targets on their backs. And the GOP politicians who are the loudest must be destroyed. There is no reason for these Republicans to leave before the election. This is what the voters fight year after year after year.
