U.S. Chamber of Commerce: Harry Reid Is Better Than Jeff Sessions
Breitbart ^ | 29 Apr 2015 | Matthew Boyle

The U.S. Chamber of Commerce purports to be a Republican-leaning organization, but it actually ranked Democratic Senate Leader Harry Reid better than Sen. Jeff Sessions (R-AL) in its new scorecard for 2014 votes.

Last year, the Chamber gave Sessions a 57 percent ranking. He voted four times with the big business group, three times against and once didn’t have a recorded vote. Reid, on the other hand, voted with the Chamber five times and against it three times, earning a 63 percent rating.

“Some may be surprised by the scores, but when you look at the bills the Chamber prioritized you can understand why a solid conservative like Jeff Sessions would perform poorly,” Heritage Action spokesman Dan Holler, whose organization does its own scorecards, tells Breitbart News. He says the Chamber’s scorecard “is littered with special interest programs and big government spending.”

The Chamber of Commerce might need to change its name to The Chamber of Communists.

Small business owners NEED to create such an organization (which would actually be conservative), because the CoC (Nationally) is not conservative.

“U.S. Chamber of Commerce: Harry Reid Is Better Than Jeff Sessions” If it didn’t say who said this, wouldn’t you think it was Chuck Schumer?
The USCC is our enemy and they are feeling better and better about electing the first Uniparty candidate which will set up a “Tails they win, heads we lose,” and America is flushed down the toilet.

Any business who is in the Chamber of Communism needs to get out now. If I see you are a CoC-lover, I will not frequent your establishment.
