Sen. Bill Cassidy (R-La.) is upset.
The government is in the longest shutdown in U.S. history. Federal employees are going without pay. Vital services are at risk.
And the Saints were robbed of the NFC Championship.
"I hope it doesn't seem out of place with the shutdown," Cassidy said Friday on the Senate floor. "But I can tell you, to the folks back home, it is something which continues to disturb them."
Cassidy called for the Senate to question the NFL over a highly controversial call by a referee during the NFC Championship in New Orleans on Sunday. The New Orleans Saints faced off the Los Angeles Rams, ending with what Cassidy dubbed one of the most "blatant and consequential blown calls in NFL history."
