House joins Libs with 'Clean' Debt Ceiling Bill

UPDATE: House Passes 'Clean' Debt Ceiling Bill
"Today, Republican ‘leadership’ in the
House completely gave up fighting for the priorities of the American
people and once again caved to the demands of President Obama and the
Democrats. This latest failure is just more proof that it’s time to dump
the GOP leadership in Congress," said ForAmerica Chairman, Brent Bozell.
The 28 Republicans who voted "yes":
  • John Boehner (OH)
  • Ken Calvert (CA)
  • Dave Camp (MI)
  • Eric Cantor (VA)
  • Howard Coble (NC)
  • Chris Collins (NY)
  • Charles Dent (PA)
  • Michael Fitzpatrick (PA)
  • Michael Grimm (NY)
  • Richard Hanna (NY)
  • Doc Hastings (WA)
  • Darrell Issa (CA)
  • Peter King (NY)
  • Kevin McCarthy (CA)
  • Buck McKeon (CA)
  • Patrick Meehan (PA)
  • Gary Miller (CA)
  • Devin Nunes (CA)
  • David Reichert (WA)
  • Hal Rogers (KY)
  • Peter Roskam (IL)
  • Ed Royce (CA)
  • Jon Runyan (NJ)
  • John Shimkus (IL)
  • Chris Smith (NJ)
  • David Valadao (CA)
  • Frank Wolf (VA)
As a side note, the official title of this bill (S.540) in the House is “To
designate the air route traffic control center located in Nashua, New
Hampshire, as the “Patricia Clerk Boston Air Route Traffic Control
Center””
. Seriously. Are they trying to hide this vote in the
future by putting it under this Senate-originated bill? You have to look
at the NOTE before you realize what it does: The measure is
expected to be a vehicle to extend the public debt limit and repeal a
reduction in the cost-of-living adjustment for military retirees.


Bill's Name and Number:
Bill (S.540) in the House is “To designate the air route traffic control center located in Nashua, New Hampshire, as the “Patricia Clerk Boston Air Route Traffic Control
Center””


This "no joke" is on America.  Do you really believe a limited "Government" shut down is worse than a Bankrupt Government and Country?
