DNC Chairman Debbie Wasserman Schultz, Congresswoman of Florida, says the House adjourning while Steny Hoyer was trying to speak shows that the House Republicans do not care about the middle class.
"Just look at the clip that you showed at the outset of this interview. Steny Hoyer, the Minority Whip was trying on the floor today as the session opened to simply introduce the Senate bill so that we could take it up and pass it. And they wouldn't even let him speak. The Republican speaker pro temperature pointed by Speaker Boehner walked off. Wouldn't even acknowledge there was a member asking for floor time. Trying to introduce a bill to fight for the middle class. They clearly showed the callous indifference to the middle class today. And then over the last day or so, to add insult to injury, Mitt Romney, one of the leading candidates for president, refuses to even say whether or not he thinks that the Republicans in the House are doing the right thing. Where is the leadership? This is a guy running for president," Wasserman Schultz (D-FL) said to Martin Bashir on his MSNBC show.
