Yes. It would be interesting to see the actual numbers for 1954 through 1994. How many of those years when the Dems controlled the House was there a Republican Senate?

Usually NO! However all spending , except apparently Obamacare starts in the House. They control the purse strings and almost always control the votes due to the rules of the Congress.

I am not saying the Republicans didn't help, but the Democrats have controlled the Legislature a vast majority of the past hundred years.
