David B. McKinley, P.E. (R-W.Va.) returned to Washington at the request of Speaker John Boehner (R-OH) to be available for crucial votes to keep the government running while fighting the President's unworkable health care law. Rep. McKinley canceled a number of important meetings, town hall events and roundtables in the district to come back to Washington and work to resolve these issues. The House will likely be voting Saturday and Sunday as well. The ball is in the Senate's court, said Rep. McKinley. The House passed legislation to keep the government running through December 15th and defund Obamacare. It's time for Harry Reid and the Senate to step up to the plate and make tough decisions. The American people have overwhelmingly told us Obamacare is costing jobs and increasing health care costs for families. The House is standing up for Americans while working to defund, delay or dismantle the President's failed health care law, added McKinley. We are ready to respond to what Harry Reid and the Democratic leadership send back. In the meantime, we will pass a debt limit increase tied to reforms that will help our economy, including a one-year delay of Obamacare. The House passed legislation on Friday, September 20th to keep the government running and defund Obamacare and is waiting now on the Senate to act. | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
