Jolly: I Would Rather Vote to do Something Than do Nothing
October 14th, 2015 by Mike Vasilinda
Congressman David Jolly told reporters at the annual AP meeting of editors and reporters in the state Capitol that Donald Trump is succeeding because he isn’t talking like a politician and that Congress is spooked by the immigration issue and would rather do nothing than risk not being elected.
“I would rather have a Congress that puts legislation on the floor. Spend the next three weeks debating border security and immigration. Let the House will on behalf of the American people and let’s see what happens. I would rather do that and risk my own political fortune and know we got something done, than go along with the current strategy avoiding the hard issues for the sake of reelection” says Jolly.
Jolly is a candidate for the US Senate after his Pinellas County congressional seat was drawn and is likely to include more Democratic voters.
