Deadlocked GOP congressional leaders send lawmakers home until June
House Republicans are reportedly frustrated by the Senate GOP's move to kick the can down the road instead of voting on a budget reconciliation package pertaining to immigration enforcement this week.
"The Senate’s demonstrated once again that they don’t even know how to get their work done properly," Republican Rep. Byron Donalds of Florida said, according to The Hill.
President Donald Trump is backing Donalds for Florida governor.
"It’s gutless, and I’m very frustrated," Republican Rep. Tim Burchett of Tennessee said, according to the outlet. "They need to work. They didn’t want to work …. The Senate ought to be calling on the leadership over there. If the House did it, I’d be doing it too."
