Boehner: Obama ‘Provided the American People a Good Laugh’ with Budget Proposal

‘More taxes, more spending, bigger government here in Washington — the same old policies that have failed for the last six years’

"This week, the House will take up three more Jobs bills to help our economy. At the same time the president provided the American people a good laugh yesterday. He send up his budget. More taxes, more spending, and bigger government here in Washington -- the same old policies that have failed for the last six years. That's not what the American people want. Tonight, the Senate is going to vote on our plan to fund the Department of Homeland Security and block the president's unilateral actions on immigration. There's a whole host of Democrats who issued press releases criticizing the president's executive overreach: MacAskill, Donnelly, others. Was it all talk? We won this fight in the House, now our fight must be won in the United States Senate. It's time for Senator Cruz and Senator Sessions and Senate Republicans and Senate Democrats to stand with the American people and to block the president's actions."
