FILE - This July 25, 2014, file photo shows Rep. John Fleming, R-La., as he speaks to reporters on Capitol Hill in Washington. In more than five years in Congress, Fleming recalls voting only once for emergency spending that raised the federal deficit. That was this week, on a bill to improve health care for veterans, and it helps explain the lineup of winners and losers in the hours before Congress began a five-week break from the Capitol.
