The article quotes Boehner:
Quote:"One month ago I personally told the White House that another extension of temporary emergency unemployment benefits should not only be paid for but include something to help put people back to work. To date, the president has offered no such plan. If he does, I'll be happy to discuss it,"
.

Lip service. The Speaker of the House could have accomplished this by now without a proposal from the President. We deserve better.
