Mills on the Hill

Fun and games today on Capitol Hill: GOP Leader John Boehner (Ohio) has just thrown a legislative grenade onto the floor of the House by introducing a privileged resolution calling for an ethics committee probe of the snafu about that missing section of the farm bill that was vetoed by President Bush.

Democrats denied Boehner speaking time on the matter and the House is currently voting on a motion to “table,” or kill, the resolution. Here is the Boehner language, available for download in .pdf format. Mills on the Hill will monitor the situation and report back with any interesting developments.
