House Democrats gather for a three-day retreat in Leesburg, with a focus on pocketbook issues such as health care that resonate with voters.

By Rachael Bade Rachael Bade Congressional reporter Email Bio Follow April 8 at 2:07 PM Not a single session at the House Democratic Caucus retreat this week will focus on oversight of President Trump, according to a person familiar with the schedule — an intentional move sidelining investigations to focus on policies that resonate with voters.

The decision to forgo a “breakout” session on House investigations comes as a handful of Democratic chairmen have ramped up their probes of the president. The Ways and Means Committee requested Trump’s tax returns last week, giving the administration until Tuesday to hand over the financial forms.The House Judiciary Committee also voted last week to authorize Chairman Jerrold Nadler to subpoena the entire special counsel Robert S. Mueller III report.

Policies? Where

About damn time somebody showed leadership and looked forward.

If the ignorant bigot can hire lawyers on the taxpayers dime, then, the Dems can do the same. He and his family must be exterminated from the WH like vermin running around in the walls. Tax evasion and money laundering are just the tip of the iceberg.

ylanmui Wusses.

It's about time. Focus on America, not Trump.

Policy? The left hasn’t focused on policy since Hills announced.

It’s called realizing Amazon Prime Wa-paper infomercials don’t win re elections. Just cool stuff with same day shipping that NEVER Happens. 😂😂😂😂😉

We need to move towards green energy

Finally. Yes please. Do something. We have a major political party that is completely dedicated to sniveling about Trump. It’s a joke. These people are wasting everyone’s time. They are absolutely useless. Why do they think this is a path to the power they so desperately want?

Ah, come on....they didn't talk about the unredacted Fisa docs, next IG report and Huber report just for fun?

'Pocketbook issues' is no doubt just thinly veiled code for what donors want.

WAPO, you sound desperate.

Charges are coming against the deep state. Who else should worry, DEMS.

At first blush, I’m not ok with that.....

Because they already consumes so much time. Probably covered at every meal

As usual, Democrats have the ball, they are first down with about a yard to go for a touchdown and they fumble and have a turnover. SMH.

another firing LOL
