500+ BILLS STUCK IN THE SENATE
More than 500 House-passed bills are sitting in the Republican-controlled Senate, and Congressman Keith Self wants answers.
In this episode of Going Rogue with Lara Logan, Rep. Keith Self and Lara discuss Washington gridlock, stalled election security legislation, blocked appointments, and the failure to turn President Trump’s executive orders into permanent law.
With the midterms approaching, Self warns that Congress is running out of time to act before the current legislative session ends.
Why won’t the Senate bring these bills to a vote and let Americans see where their elected representatives stand?

What do you say? What do you say to the Senate?
Because they absolutely refuse to do their job.
Why? That's the great unknown,
because I say, you don't think you've got the votes,
put it to a vote and let's find out.
Let's have the Democrats or the Republicans stand up
and tell the American people why they want
illegals voting in our election. I think it'd be great theater.
I think people would be riveted to
their televisions to watch some U.S. senators stand up and say,
I want illegals to vote in
this election. Yeah, I mean,
what happens is that the people are now, you know, starting to feel
powerless. This is why they feel like their vote doesn't matter,
because they voted overwhelmingly
for accountability. They haven't seen it.
They voted for, you know, secure elections. And the
legislation is there and the Republican controlled Senate
is blocking it. I mean, the Republican
controlled Senate is also blocking appointments.
They prevented the president from doing recess
appointments. You still got a staggering number
of American ambassadors who were appointed by
Joe Biden. I mean, for the love of God, what is happening on the Hill?
Well, let's just look at
bills that the House has passed.
The House has 580 some bills sitting over in the Senate that
we passed. More than 500 House passed bills are sitting in the Senate.
Now they're going to die
at the end of the year uh when this when this congress changes
so we're going to have to do
them all again and to your point we haven't codified nearly enough
of president trump's
executive orders he gives a good executive order
that we're acting on for this term but if we don't
codify it into law yeah it won't be there
the next term yeah it's meaningless it's just reverse
that's it and when when democrats get into power especially
if they have the kind of majority that
that the republicans have right now they just
don't stop it's one investigation after another
after another after another and then it's more
and more and more legislation they tear everything
they want down and they've already said what they're planning
to do i mean susan rice came
out and said you know we're not going to play
by the old rules we're coming off the universities
and corporations and i mean she went through the list basically
and it's very obvious the strategy
that they've been using is one
of government paralysis right they just slow roll everything
They're waiting it out. And the federal government is full
of deep state bureaucrats working, subverting the president
and a bunch of cowards who are not doing their jobs.
Well, they want chaos in this election. There's no doubt about it,
because the more uncertain that Americans feel,
the more unease that they feel, the more anger that's misdirected.
They think that that benefits Democrats and socialists and communists.
So that's why they're doing this is they're targeting the election.
But then once they get past the election, listen to what they say.
As you just said, they're being very honest with the American people.
We're going to tear all of this down.
And they're very honest with that.
