Pocan Statement on Republican Lawsuit Against President Obama

Washington, D.C. — U.S. Rep. Mark Pocan (WI-02) today issued the following statement on the House Republican's lawsuit against President Obama. This House Resolution is expected to be voted on this Thursday, the last day before Congress leaves for its August recess.

"This lawsuit is nothing more than a political sideshow to distract from the long to-do list House Republicans have neglected," said Rep. Mark Pocan. "Addressing the health care backlog for veterans, raising the minimum wage, ensuring paycheck fairness, working to make college more affordable – are all still sitting on the shelf while Congressional Republicans pursue political stunts. It's no wonder why Congress' approval rating is so low."
