Boehner Tells Senate to "Get off Their Ass" on Sequester

Writer's picture: OurStudioOurStudio

Echoing the frustration of lawmakers throughout Washington hoping for a last-minute swerve to avoid impending budget cuts, House Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio, used some PG-13 phraseology Tuesday to urge the Senate to action.

"We have moved a bill in the House twice," Boehner said at a press conference Tuesday. "We should not have to move a third bill before the Senate gets off their ass and begins to do something."

The refrain of urging Senate action comes from Boehner just four days before the sequestration cuts are slated to kick in.
