Congress to Work a Five-Day Week Starting in January

Now this is a real white collar crime.  A report in the Washington Post (here) notes that incoming Majority Leader Steny Hoyer delivered the bad news to Representatives and reporters who cover Congress, drawing moans from the journalists.  Hoyer is reported to have told his colleagues, "Those trips you had planned in January, forget 'em. We will be working almost every day in January, starting with the 4th."  I wonder how many will apply for law school teaching jobs now :)  (ph -- sorry, I couldn't resist)
