23 Members Of Congress Also Went To Mandela Memorial At Taxpayer Expense

According to the WaPo, at least 23 members of Congress went to the Mandela memorial on a government aircraft. Most were members of the Congressional Black Caucus, including Marcia Fudge, John Lewis and Charlie Rangel. Two Republicans also went, Aaron Schock, who was named head of the delegation by John Boehner, and Ted Cruz.

As we noted here, Cruz walked out when Raul Castro began to speak.

Elijah Cummings, who also went, said that he gave Cruz an “earful” about Obamacare on the flight there and promised to give him give him an earful on the way back.

I suspect it is Cummings and Democrats who will be getting an earful both from Cruz and their constitituents on the failures of Obamacare.
