House Republicans on Tuesday afternoon accused Obama administration officials of purposefully lying about the IRS policy of targeting conservative groups, the Benghazi, Libya, investigation, and Justice Department snooping on Associated Press reporters.

"The scandals from this administration are coming so fast that the American people can barely keep up," Rep. Luke Messer (R-Ind.) said on the House floor.

"And this pattern of arrogance, lies and outright lawlessness should be disturbing to every American."

Sen. Jeff Flake (R-Ariz.) on Tuesday became the latest member of Congress to propose a legislative response to the IRS scandal.

Flake introduced the Protect Against Ideology-Based Targeting Act, which would prohibit the IRS from reviewing the tax-exempt status of groups based on political ideology.

Sen. Kay Hagan (D-N.C.) called on Congress Tuesday to immediately address the “astounding and totally unacceptable” problem of sexual assault in the military.

“I am here to discuss the sexual assault crisis that is facing our military and the need to act immediately,” Hagan said on the Senate floor. “The brave service members that put their lives on the line should not have to worry about their safety on U.S. bases. … No one should ever have to deal with those kinds of concerns especially when they are already putting their lives on the line for our country.”

Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) said Tuesday that he plans to call Bryce Harper's parents today after the Washington Nationals' star outfielder injured himself running into a wall Monday night.

"I told the Republican leader I was going to talk to his family," Reid said Tuesday morning on the Senate floor with Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.). "I'll talk to his mom or dad to find how he's doing."

Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) on Tuesday introduced a resolution calling on the Obama administration to fire officials involved in the IRS's decision to target conservative groups, and to seek criminal charges against them.

"President Obama should terminate the individuals responsible for targeting and willfully discriminating against Tea Party groups and other conservative groups," Paul's resolution reads.

Sen. Barbara Boxer (D-Calif.) said House Republicans needed to “look in the mirror” on who is to blame for the “Benghazi scandal.”

“Start by looking in the mirror,” Boxer said on the Senate floor Tuesday. “Admit that you cut too much from embassy security.”

McConnell demanded Obama give Congress full access to every IRS official involved in the targeting decision.

Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) said Republicans are blocking the Senate and House from forming a conference committee on the budget for the “nakedly partisan reason” of creating another economic crisis.

“It’s obvious [Republicans] are delaying [the budget] for one nakedly partisan reason: they hope to put off a compromise long enough to create another manufactured crisis, as the nation once again approaches the debt limit,” Reid said on the Senate floor Tuesday.

Rep. Bill Owens (D-N.Y.) on Monday reintroduced legislation that would let people buy "War on Debt" savings bonds, which would be used to help reduce the national debt.

Owens has introduced this bill each year since 2010, before Republicans took over the House and began their own efforts to rein in the budget deficit and the soaring national debt.
