As chairman of the powerful House Rules Committee, Rep. Pete Sessions (R-Texas) plays an integral role in determining exactly how productive Congress can be in passing legislation. In an interview with Roll Call published Tuesday, however, the nine-term Republican admitted that the GOP's primary interests aren't even in the chamber it controls.
"Everything we do in this body should be about messaging to win back the Senate, Sessions said. Thats it. If you dont want Benghazis to happen or you want an investigation for Benghazi, if you want an investigation on the IRS as opposed to the excuses that (Senate Majority Leader) Harry Reid [D-Nev.] is all about, if you do not like whats happening at the (National Security Agency), then you gain the Senate.
