Congress is back in session this week -- but we're not holding our breath for Republicans to start doing their jobs. Pitch in today to help us take back our majorities in the House and Senate this November: After a long summer vacation, Congress is back in session this week -- but that doesn't mean congressional Republicans are ready to start doing their jobs. That's really no surprise, either. In fact, the Bipartisan Policy Center's Commission on Political Reform reports that under Republican Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell and House Speaker Paul Ryan, the 114th Congress is one of the least productive congressional sessions in American history. The Republican-controlled House and Senate have both worked well below the index's recommended number of days -- including a pathetic 193 days from the House of Representatives. That's probably why 62% of Americans disapprove of the job the Republican-led Congress is doing. It's embarrassing. And things aren't much better when this Congress does show up. In its few days of work, Paul Ryan's House is keeping up the trend of voting to repeal or undermine Obamacare (which Republicans have now done more than 60 times). Meanwhile, Mitch McConnell and Senate Republicans have obstructed our judicial process by refusing to vote on Chief Judge Merrick Garland's confirmation to the Supreme Court for an unprecedented six months. After everything we've seen from the GOP these few years, it's high time we take back our majorities in the House and Senate. That's why we've got to do everything it takes to not only make sure Hillary Clinton beats Donald Trump on Election Day -- but also to elect a new Congress that will work with her to keep our country moving forward.
