McConnell and Boehner penned an agenda statement in the WSJ opinion pages today. You're welcome.
John Boehner and Mitch McConnell: Now We Can Get Congress Going - WSJ - WSJ
The Bullet points:
Our priorities in the 114th Congress will be your priorities. That means addressing head-on many of the most pressing challenges facing the country, including:
• The insanely complex tax code that is driving American jobs overseas;
• Health costs that continue to rise under a hopelessly flawed law that Americans have never supported;
• A savage global terrorist threat that seeks to wage war on every American;
• An education system that denies choice to parents and denies a good education to too many children;
• Excessive regulations and frivolous lawsuits that are driving up costs for families and preventing the economy from growing;
• An antiquated government bureaucracy ill-equipped to serve a citizenry facing 21st-century challenges, from disease control to caring for veterans;
• A national debt that has Americans stealing from their children and grandchildren, robbing them of benefits that they will never see and leaving them with burdens that will be nearly impossible to repay.
Greetings, jmotivator. :2wave:
Since Obama has put granting amnesty or whatever, via an EO, to millions of illegals in the next week or so, contrary to the wishes of the American people, someone should get a lawsuit filed immediately to get a ruling on whether he has the authority to grant citizenship to anyone, and to halt same until it is decided one way or another. When the new Congress takes over, they can work on jobs and anything else they want to tackle. This amnesty :bs: is a miscarriage of justice, and a slap in the face of those who are following the law! Plus, it's just plain ignoring the laws of our land to suit someone's whim! I have no problem with anyone wanting to live in this country, but do it legally, damn it! :2mad:
