During the final vote to close out the House’s “hell week,” a handful of Republicans had a message for the Senate: You’re responsible for the “suffering” agenda.
Standing on the steps outside the Capitol on Thursday, House Freedom Caucus members loudly aired their grievances with the Senate. Republicans there have shown them “no respect,” they said, and Majority Leader John Thune, R-S.D., needs to “get control” of his chamber.
“The agenda of the American people is suffering and lagging behind, and the Senate, unfortunately, is just responsible for that,” said Rep. Scott Perry, R-Pa.
