Rep. Chet Edwards says Congress left to much undone

Congress left behind billions of dollars in un fished business when it closed shop last week, leaving nine major spending bills unsettled heading into 2007.

That means many local priority projects, including a study of Post-traumatic stress disorder that figured heavily into successful effort to keep Waco Veterans Affairs Hospital open must wait for approval next year, under a new Congress.

'"For Congress to go on a three-week vacation without taking care of veterans or military families is nothing short of unconscionable ," said U.S. Rep. Chet Edwards, D- Waco.
