Here Comes the Repbulican Congress

With all the fanfare of a new Rollercoaster a Great America (the Tallest, Faster, Highest, Most Christian Congress in decades!!!), the Republicans have rolled into town to take over both branches of Congress.
.
The Right(wing) press is thrilled!  And they predict, finally, government will get to work.
.
The Wall Street Journal says, "..the new, center-right majority will focus on economic growth, regulatory restraint and corporate tax reform to show how they'd govern if given the keys to the White House in 2016."
.
The Baltimore Sun expands on the great areas of working together they will focus on, cyber-security, repair crumbling infrastructure, or close special-interest tax loopholes The even said, "Republicans are serious about leading the country, not just currying favor with the Fox News and talk-radio crowd."
.
New Senate Leader Mitch McConell said the GOP could offer, "responsible, right-of-center governing majority."  His priorities were to approve the Keystone Pipeline and reduce the coverage requirement for Obamacare  pool by covering not workers working 30 hours but only those working 40 hours.
.
So, what were the first, critical bills introduced?!?!?
.
Surely something that the entire country can get behind.
