Someone at CBS News is actually reporting facts. Writing about the Pew Research Center's report on Congressional Productivity.
In its first year, the 113th Congress passed just 55 substantive pieces of legislation, 65 laws total counting measures like post-office renaming and commemorative-coin authorizations. It surpassed the 112th Congress, which passed 63 substantive measures in its first year and previously held the title for least-productive in recent memory.
While it's no surprise to many here it's nice to see one of the MSN corps put it in black and white.
CBS News quickly notes 2013 Congress ineffectiveness.
