“I would like to get something done. I don’t want to have two years of nothing,” said Representative Paul D. Ryan, Republican of Wisconsin and the new chairman of the House Budget Committee. “It would be nice to get some achievements, if only for the bond markets — to keep them at bay for the time being.”
