“With Congress locked in near-continuous budget and debt limit battles, one influential lawmaker has been noticeably quiet this year,” Roll Call reports.
Rep. Paul Ryan (R-WI), “the House Budget chairman and the GOP’s 2012 vice presidential candidate, has been a trusted, go-to source on budget and fiscal issues in the party for years. Yet the Wisconsin Republican has not, seemingly, been at the forefront of the most recent fight over a stopgap spending bill, nor has he been a loud voice on the debt limit.”
