I Don’t Get It
Does anyone know why Mike Pence (R-IN) of all people voted “present” on Steve King’s (R-IA) resolution promoting the importance of Christianity?
Pence is as hard-core a conservative as you’ll fine — and no enemy of the Christian wing of the party. What’s up?

Our tax dollars, hard at work, serving to help solve the complex social issues of the day…
I don’t know why, but it’s good to hear.
I expect Mike Pence decided not to be party to a resolution that was in essence little more than political pandering BS, and (as has been mentioned) a waste of taxpayer money.
Because he knows how crazy and dumb this bill is. By voting “Present”, he’s saying that this is a waste of Congress’s time, since he clearly can’t vote no.
