But yet they want seniors to work more. They want SNAP, Medicaid recipients to meet a higher level of work hours. The hypocrisy isn’t even mind blowing anymore. It’s disgusting. Any one of us would have been fired.

The 119th Congress "led" by @SpeakerJohnson was the laziest ever. Republicans simply are not able to govern. Get them out.

...which isn't enough work days to qualify for SNAP, let alone a standard performance review. If any normal American tried working 72 days a year while demanding their boss fund their healthcare and pension they’d be fired by Friday morning.

Data from No Labels and congressional records show the House recorded floor votes on just 65 days through August 31—the lowest in midterm election years since 1994—with short daily sessions averaging around 3 hours

Under Democrats control the Congress allowed 25 million illegal immigrants in our country that cost us $1 trillion to support them I would say the Republicans are doing better

And Democrats have refused to vote for anything. All no votes all year long. With the divided Congress how would anything ever get accomplished. Hate Trump, block anything he wants, don't think about the American voters. You haven't accomplished anything this year, have you?

1 day would be better. There is a direct detrimental effect on my life the longer Congress is in session. Congress is corrupt.

Start using your time to work together to draft bills so that when Dems regain Congress, we can get some stuff done. FAST. End Citizens United. No stock trades for Congress. Impeach/replace/expand SC; pass term limits and Ethic standards with teeth….

As a Conservative, I can't say that I'm unhappy about that. Government never fixes things or solves problems-they are the biggest creators of those things.

With record bills passed. Under Biden they were in session twice the days and 25% of bills. Inefficient Democrats has been the standard this decade

The Nebraska Legislature meets in a two-year cycle called a biennium, which is split into a long 90 day session and a short 60 day session. – at Grand Island, NE

And the question is: if Republicans are so uninterested in doing their jobs why are they pushing to get the control of Congress again?

Less time for conservatives to damage the country.
