“Democratic leaders promised when their party regained control of the House three years ago that lawmakers would work five-day weeks,but that plan apparently didn’t work.”
“But a recent analysis found that after a fairly energetic first half of this year, the House has settled into what Politico calls a “rather leisurely routine” of two-and-a-half day workweeks.”
This is a sweet deal. They promise to work a five day week, then when elected drop back to a two-and-a-half day workweek. Meanwhile your ordinary voter is working longer hours for less money. And THEY are the lucky ones. Maybe if they stepped it up to three days a week Congress would have enough time to READ what they sign.
