Why should Mitch waste the time of the Senate voting on bills from the House that have no hope of passing, and even if they magically did they would be vetoed by the President?  When the House sends a bill that is worth the Senate's consideration and they refuse to work on it then you have an argument to be made.  But alas, that is not the case.  The Founders set it up this way recognizing the House would be more susceptible to the whims of the crowds but the Senate less so given their six-year terms.  No point in wasting their time and effort on useless legislation passed by the House.
