John Thune: “The President feels very committed that we have to put maximum pressure on to have any hope of fixing the problems.”

I just think, if you’re looking at issues that we want to get at the heart of what everybody seems to be saying, the Democrats and others are saying, are important, we're concerned about.

It's a pretty simple measure, but an important way to ensure that members of Congress are held to the standards that America should be able to expect of their representatives.

I like the message. But it shouldn’t be paid for with taxpayer dollars.

Odds are we plan on being here next week," said Thune.
