House

this is incorrect, the GOP controls the House atm. The Dems control the Senate.

Really, take time to understand how legislation is crafted in a bicameral congress, it's worth it.

I didn't say they controlled the house, I described what they do when they control the house.

Do pay attention to the complexities of the English language, it's really worth it :-P
