Joe Strauss has done an excellent job....
of keeping any pro gun bills from ever coming up for a vote. Time for him to go.

Pay no attention to the phony A ratings from groups headquartered outside Texas.

There were several others who decided they were going to challenge Strauss last time around.

I saw the headline, and it got my hopes up for someone to kick Boenher to the curb.

Strauss has a lot of strong wealthy supporters. It's going to take a significant coordinated united effort to unseat him.

Is there anything that we can do to help this along?

Support (donate) any conservative candidate who may run against him. I'm afraid the only way to remove him as Speaker is to remove him from the House.
