Amash to Speaker Boehner: "Show Us the Scorecard!" - Joe Wlverton II, ''New American:
December 12, 2012 - "Republican Representative Justin Amash ... and Representative Tim Huelskamp (R-Kan.) were booted from the Budget Committee - likely a result of the two congressmen’s record of opposing the Speaker on key fiscal issues.
