Democratic leaders encouraged their rank-and-file to use recent controversial remarks by Minority Leader John Boehner (R-Ohio) to differentiate their party from Republicans over the weeklong recess break.
Caucus Chairman Rep. John Larson (D-Conn.) told The Hill on Thursday that his members head home for the recess focused on five issues; key among those is how Democrats would handle Social Security.
Larson ticked off the points in an interview, including “a focus on seniors and differentiating the need to have Social Security remain solvent and not used to pay for the war,” Larson chortled, a reference to Boehner’s recent comments in thePittsburgh Tribune-Review.
