Sen. Ron Johnson (R-Wis.), an outspoken budget hawk, doesn't want to add another paid holiday to the calendar.

Good for you Ron Johnson.

To be fair to Cornyn, he just proposed making Juneteenth a holiday, Ron Johnson complained another holiday would waste money and proposed eliminating one to counter balance and suggested Columbus claiming few care about it. Cornyn said he doesn’t want to eliminate Columbus day.

Johnson and Lankford (OK) have introduced an amendment to Cornyn’s bill to eliminate Columbus day. Tone death idiots.
