Lets hope they vote on the bill and the bill pass through the Senate. The problem is going to be the House Republicans, next week the congress will be off AGAIN for a week. This is madness, I never seen nothing like this in my life, the congress have more off days and vacations then the regular workers. I urge everyone to call their local , state and federal representative ASAP. Tell them to pass this bill! If not, Nov 4, 2014 will be coming soon.

This is unreal. I'm watching Harry Reid now. He said he spoke with a reupublican leader as well as a few others and the only vote they will have today is on someone becoming a justice of the court. He said he hopes they will come to some kind of agreement today. If not, tomorrow.

This is bull!!!!

THERE NEEDS TO BE A REVOLUTION IN THIS COUNTRY!!!!

MILLION PEOPLE MARCH ON WASHINGTON!!!!!!

you do realize that This is ONLY the Senate. There is VERY little chance Congress will pass any of these legistlations. This is a political game for democrts to say we tried our best and republics say Democrats did not play ball with us. we are only a voiceless minority with no lobbying power. where do you think this will end up? Time to pack bags and move to moms spare bedroom. Hope she will have enough walls so I could hang my two degrees and 25 years of professional experices on to... Shame on you Republicans....

I like your enthusiasm. So tired of the Republican bad, Democrat good and the other way around. Both are corrupt, inept and could care less about the people they serve.

Please people...CALL YOUR REPRESENTATIVES AND GET ANGRY! You can be angry without being rude. They need to hear that we need help and now!

I am so sick of this Congress, it make no sense, they acting like children. November 4, 2014, I know what I am going to do. These losers have to go and we need young and fresh new blood in the congess who are in the middle. Get rid of the right and left. We need more independents. The Senate from Indiana just talking, He need to stop talking and get his vote on. Voting is a must!!! I hope in November, we have a brand new Congress! They not creating jobs at all. Just working for the corporations and the Koch Brothers.

You see this mess, none of them are not in the room to vote or discuss to get this done. I am so done with the Congress, They have to go ASAP. Such a disgrace!! Everyone need to call their local office, state reps, and Congress!!! Let them have it. Keep calling them.

It's done, we aren't getting anything! For those stupid enough to think that democrats are blocking the bill think again,. Keep voting Republican and see the sh*t sandwich you'll end up with. If Democrats were the majority in congress it would pass overnight! (Fact)
I say vote them out, and watch out for independents, some of them are just like Rand Paul or worse. Also, just turn to crime, I'd rather turn to theft than go hungry, I'm not advocating violence, just steal when you can to survive. It's dog eat dog right now, do what you can to survive! IF YOU CANNOT FIND WAYS TO MAKE MONEY, DO WHATEVER IT TAKES!
