Speaker Boehner has said many times that the House of Representatives is the closest institution to the people, and he recognizes that by empowering the members to have direct input into the process.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
The House is rooted in the principle of direct elections and is unique among all branches and bodies of the federal government as without exception, the people's voice.
I think that our leadership, Mitch McConnell and John Boehner, are taking the right approach.
I want to support John Boehner in any way that I can, but we need to be pragmatic.
I'm concerned that Speaker Boehner is getting ahead of House Republicans when he commits to getting a 'comprehensive approach' to immigration taken care of 'once and for all.'
Even with the approach that I take in Congress, which is to bring people together to get things done - many people describe that as 'reasonable' - I couldn't vote for John Boehner's re-elect.
John Boehner is a friend.
Being Speaker of the House is a really tough spot.
A woman's place is in the house - the House of Representatives.
I believe the House of Representatives is exactly the place where immigration reform should take place. Our entire House is elected every two years. We're the people closest to the people.
Speaker Boehner is doing a great job.
