Forget the minimum wage. Or outsourcing jobs overseas. The labor issue most on the minds of members of Congress was their own: They will have to work five days a week starting in January.
Members of the House of Representatives have had it easy.
Up until now, the legislative work week started late Tuesday and ended by Thursday afternoon -- and that was during the relatively few weeks the House wasn't in recess.
Next year, members of the House will be expected in the Capitol for votes each week by 6:30 p.m. Monday and will finish their business about 2 p.m. Friday.
Funny thing about the longer hours is that reporters will probably cry louder than the lawmakers.
