Rep. Grace Meng: House GOP's Tea Partyers forced me to skip an Expo

Big news on Capitol Hill: Congresswoman Grace Meng, D-N.Y., wasn’t able to go to the “Make It in America” Expo in Glendale, N.Y., this afternoon.

And it’s all the House Republicans’ fault for not agreeing to fund Obamacare:

We don’t know how all those Expo attendees will be able to manage their disappointment!

On the plus side, Rep. Meng will still have access to affordable health insurance. Alas, many other Americans aren’t so fortunate.
