Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, joined the growing chorus of lawmakers calling on Congress to forego its August recess until it passes legislation to repeal and replace ObamaCare. "It’s crazy that we would be taking a recess," Cruz told Fox News' "Hannity" Monday night. "Let’s work every day, let’s work weekends, let’s work until we get the job done," Cruz added. "We have a job to do and a short window of time, and so we ought to stop taking recesses, stop taking time off and just keep going until we get it done." Cruz told host Sean Hannity Monday night that his amendment was "the knob of the battle" in the Senate.
