First Impression of a New GOP Senator: Lawmakers ‘Don’t Work Very Hard’ – By Susan Jones (CNS News) / Jan 6, 2023
(CNSNews.com) – Just days after being sworn in for his first term, U.S. Senator J.D. Vance says he’s already back home on a three-week recess.
The Ohio Republican spoke on Thursday night with Fox News’s Tucker Carlson, who asked for Vance’s “first reaction” on becoming a senator.
“Well, I guess my first reaction, Tucker, is they don’t work very hard, because we got sworn in on Tuesday and then we started a three-week recess.
“So I’m actually back in my home in Cincinnati right now, which is so crazy to me, because it’s not like the country doesn’t have a major crises and problems that you would expect the United States Senate to actually be working on.
