The Valley House delegation has abandoned their responsibilities here in a most craven way.  Rep. Hughes and the others say they will refuse to look at revenue until the government is "right sized" They were all in the majority- they had the power to "right size" government if they wanted. They did not cut more because they knew they couldn't. Then they turn around with the same lies that got them elected that the budget deficit was simply a "spending" problem. Hughes and Gattis want promotion to the Senate where I guess they can clog up the works there. The idea to blow our savings waiting for something to turn up is not a plan.
