Senator, you are in control of the House of Representatives. It must approve all legislation, and is of equal power twith the Senate.
If it is because of the democrats, why do the unfavorable laws continue to get passed on your watch?
You cannot say no, and stick to it. You cave. You always cave.
Otherwise, Obamacare would not be funded, and many other things as well.
The problems is that you have allowed yourself to be labeled by the Democrat party as obstructionist, without actually obstructing.
You may call yourself anything you like, but you still are in charge of a House that supports Democrats, especially on the big stuff.
“If it is because of the democrats, why do the unfavorable laws continue to get passed on your watch?”
What laws are those ? The govt. is on a sequester and the budget never did pass. Spending is done on a continuing resolution. The Bush tax cuts were renewed for everyone under 200,000, because the alternative was the bush tax cuts would expire for everyone. Immigration reform died. Obamacare passed when the democrats had huge majorities in both houses.
