- One of my favorite pictures from yesterday on our first day in the new Congress. So grateful to have Joyce by my side every day. She works just as hard for Arizona's 6th District as the rest of us and I couldn't imagine this ride without her.

Now that the fiscal cliff debate has ended, a new one is beginning...before we know it, the debt ceiling increase fight will be here. I previewed my expectations of that fight on CNBC today: http://bit.ly/Zd2MDv- Number of the day: $16.4 Trillion. Treasury Secretary Geithner said Monday we've gone over the $16.4T debt-ceiling cliff. Pres. Obama blew the $2.1T debt-ceiling in 17 months. This is not sustainable.
