thanks, Congress!

Slang used to blame real problems on the ineffectual Republican-obstructed Congress.
Coined during the 2013 government shutdown. Used literally, as opposed to the sarcastic "thanks Obama."

The NSF, NIST, NASA, NIH, FDA, EPA, etc were shut down, we lost around 300,000 jobs and $24 billion from the economy – thanks, Congress!
