In civics and government books, “how a bill becomes law” shows multiple steps during which representatives consider bills before enactment. Unfortunately, such responsible deliberation, necessary to even a minimal prospect of legislation advancing the general welfare, is violated by “gut and amend” bills at the end of legislative sessions.
As legislators race to pass bills under deadline, power brokers gut bills that have cleared most legislative hurdles, and replace them with completely different bills.

So a bill that I, as a Senator or Representative read and decided to support could be completely different by the time I actually get to vote on it?
If this is so, this process needs to change. I knew there were a lot of procedural issues that muck up a bill in both houses, for a bill to be completely different?
I knew it had to happen
But I was expecting just a visible posted still.
