Want a four day week? Run for Congress

Washington Post

House Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy on Wednesday released the 2015 congressional calendar, which sets up the weekly voting agenda for the 114th Congress.
The new session of Congress will convene Jan. 6. And that four-day week sets the pace for the rest of the year: By my count, the calendar has no five-day voting weeks and 18 weeks in which zero voting days are scheduled. (That comes to 132 voting days on the 2015  calendar.) January appears to be the only full month in which Congress will be in session.
