Does Pete Gallego think having 5 bills signed into law is “getting things done in Washington?”

Last week, President Obama signed Will Hurd’s 5^th bill into law. An impressive feat for any lawmaker, but especially a freshman. Additionally, Hurd has had another 5 bills pass the House.

Yet Pete Gallego’s latest tv ad talks about getting “things done in Washington.” Which begs the question: does Gallego think getting 10 bills through the House and 5 of those signed into law is getting things done for the 23^rd District?

Because during his time in congress Gallego had ZERO bills even pass the House, much less signed into law. ZERO.

In contrast, Hurd has had bills that reform border patrol agent pay, prevent wasteful government spending, and honor Texas’ most highly decorated WWI veteran signed into law in just his first term.

NRCC Comment: “It is embarrassing to watch Pete Gallego scramble to pretend he accomplished much of anything during his first term in office. Gallego couldn’t get a single bill passed before, so why should 23^rd District voters believe he would be any more effective this time around?” – NRCC Spokesman Zach Hunter
