Gas and grocery prices are bleeding us dry, and instead of a real plan to ease the squeeze on working families, Congress just gives us more excuses.

I have to say, this was the norm for many of the responses I heard on this subject, and this will put significant pressure on the GOP to get this situation rectified before the midterm elections.
