On the job-creating Export-Import Bank, Speaker Boehner and the House Republican leadership caved to the demands of extremist groups and House GOP Members issuing warnings and tracking their every move.

It's no wonder the Republican leaders will not act to save the Bank or Americans jobs. According to Fox News' Chad Pergram:

Meanwhile, businesses and Democrats across the country continue to call on Speaker Boehner and the House Republican Conference to reauthorize the Bank responsible for creating or sustaining 1.5 million jobs since 2007 and creating 164,000 American jobs just last year alone:
