Damn good thing there are no problems that have to be addressed. Does spending time in home districts include golf, I wonder?

House GOP schedule for 112th Congress; less time in session

The House will be in Washington for fewer weeks in 2011 under a schedule released Wednesday by Republican leaders.

Under the new schedule, the House will have a cycle of meeting for two weeks in D.C. before spending one week in home districts. Incoming House Majority Leader Eric Cantor (R-Va.) said the new schedule would create “certainty” for members.

Instead of a target adjournment date of Sept. 29, Cantor expects the House to meet through December.

He said the House would meet for about the same number of days, but would see its weeks in session decline from previous years by 11 percent, which would lower member travel expenses.
