THE GOP FRESHMEN speak up.

Mr. Reid, your record on spending in the Senate is one of failure. You have failed to pass a budget, failed to restrain spending, and failed to put our country on sound fiscal footing. We do not accept your failure as our own. The American people did not send us here to fail. Make no mistake: any government shutdown is the result of your lack of leadership.

Mr. McConnell, Mr. Boehner, if you like your jobs and want to keep them, listen up! America is speaking to you, too.
