You want efficient government? Elect Democrats.
House Democrats brought their "100-hour" legislative agenda to a successful close Thursday evening.... The House finished work on all six measures in about 42 hours of floor time, less than half the limit set on their self-imposed clock.
Today's legislation would repeal subsidies to oil and gas companies and creates a Strategic Renewable Energy Reserve to invest in clean, renewable energy resources. Thirty-six Republicans voted with the Dems.
To recap the first 100 42 hours, in addition to today's action the House passed bills to Iimplement the 9/11 Commission recommendations, increase the minimum wage, expand stem cell research, lower prescription drug costs, and cut student loan interest rates.
Speaker Pelosi, take a bow.
