SnyderTalk Editorial: Profile of House Republican Leader John Boehner


Congressman John Boehner’s experience in elected politics:

Highlights from Congressman Boehner’s political career:

  • 1991—Boehner was part of the Gang of Seven that challenged the House establishment.  They took on Republicans and Democrats and were instrumental in closing the House Bank (House banking scandal); they exposed “dine-and-dash” practices at the House Restaurant; and they brought to light drug sales and illegal cash-for-stamps deals at the House Post Office.
  • 1994— Boehner was a key player in drafting the Contract with America.
  • 1995—Boehner was accused of unethical conduct when he distributed campaign contributions from tobacco industry lobbyists on the House floor as House members were considering how to vote on tobacco subsidies.  Eventually, he led the effort to change House rules and prohibit campaign contributions from being distributed on the House floor.
  • 1996—Boehner played an important role in passage of the Freedom to Farm Act.
  • 2001 to 2006—as Chairman of the House Education and Workforce Committee, Boehner authored the Pension Protection Act and a school choice program for low-income children in Washington, DC.  He was instrumental in the passage of No Child Left Behind.
  • September 18, 2008—Boehner attended a closed meeting with congressional leaders, then-Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson, and Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke during which he was asked to draft legislation to help financially troubled banks. According to Marketplace, that same day Boehner cashed out of an equity mutual fund. He said his broker acted alone and did not consult with Boehner prior to making the trade.
  • October 3, 2008—Boehner voted for the Troubled Asset Relief Program (TARP).
  • Boehner has been highly critical of “cap and trade” saying that it would jeopardize job growth, and he led opposition to the trillion-dollar stimulus favoring instead an alternative economic recovery plan and a Republican budget that was authored by Rep. Paul Ryan (R-WI).
  • July 2010—Politico published a story in which it was revealed that “lobbyists and other major donors across the country who give the maximum or help raise $100,000 will get meetings with Boehner…VIP access to all events, including roundtables, briefings, breakout discussions and interactive panel discussions.”  Boehner’s fundraising closely resembles the pay-to-play that has gotten so much attention lately thanks primarily to former Illinois Governor Rod Blagojevich.  The article also said that “Boehner convened a meeting of top Republican lobbyists at the National Republican Congressional Committee last Thursday to enlist them in the cause and armed them with slick, presidential-level brochures and fundraising materials making the case for putting him in the speaker’s chair.”

A May 2009 article in the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review said that “on both sides of the aisle, Boehner earns praise for candor and an ability to listen.”  In March 2009, the Cleveland Plain Dealer said that Boehner “has perfected the art of disagreeing without being disagreeable.”  In the latest edition of Newsweek, an article by Howard Fineman asks this question: “Is Rep. John Boehner an empty suit—a sharp suit, to be sure, one Don Draper might wear—or is there more there?”  The article’s conclusion?  “No one on the right—the establishment, the Tea Party—should look past Boehner’s ability. He was drawn to politics by a resentment of the powers that be. He’s a survivor of intraparty struggle after intraparty struggle. He’s a get-along guy known for making those around him look good (he has pledged to let junior members, even Tea Partiers, introduce their own amendments).”

Congress needs a workhorse as Speaker of the House who isn’t tied too closely to the DC way of doing things to put us on the right path.  Is Rep. Boehner that person or would someone like Rep. Paul Ryan (D-WI) be a better choice?  You be the judge.
