No, you didnt just wake up from a bad dream. John Boehner and House leaders are actually moving forward with their plan to sue the President. Of course, its an unbelievable waste of time and taxpayer dollars -- and when you think about what Speaker Boehner hasnt gotten done for the American people, its even more outrageous. Name any issue youve wanted to see progress on, and you can be pretty damn sure the House hasnt done anything meaningful to move it forward. That isnt working for the vast majority of Americans, and its up to us to let him know it. So Im asking you, Ronald -- whats the one thing you would say to John Boehner, if you could? Because OFA volunteers are going to hand-deliver all of your messages straight to his office. Its not really the political stunt of suing the President that makes me mad. What really ticks me off is that John Boehner and House leaders are spending time (and our money) on a wasteful lawsuit instead of doing anything good for the American people. Right now, John Boehner is personally standing in the way of progress. A lot of it. He and House leaders are blocking comprehensive immigration reform. Theyre refusing to make long-term investments in our transportation infrastructure, and arent even considering a bill to raise the minimum wage for hard-working families. Theyre preventing action from being taken on climate change. They wont lift a finger to help relieve the burden of student loan debt, or reduce discrimination against LGBT Americans. And its not the first time we have seen this from John Boehner and his friends in the House -- remember when they shut down the government and wasted hundreds of hours trying to repeal Obamacare and take away affordable health care from Americans? It seems like John Boehner goes through a lot of trouble to keep real work from getting done. Thats something that frustrates a whole lot of people across the country who work hard every day. Its time he heard from us. Let Speaker Boehner know whats on your mind and tell him to stop wasting our time: my.barackobama/Send-John-Boehner-A-Message Thanks, Messina Jim Messina Chair Organizing for Action
