Don’t forget the Department of Energy, which has failed miserably in getting us off oil... Thanks for that lasting legacy of FAIL Jimmah!

What exactly is the point of bills like this? Even if they can get them through the Senate, the President isn’t going to sign! “Defunding” is the only real control they can have.
