They are not standing, they are fleeing and ticking off a lot of independents in the process. I would rather see a filibuster and floor speeches instead of Reps avoiding their responsibilities. Again, if they want to fight against tyranny, go back to the constituents and ransack the Capital.

The quorums cost a lot of money which is being wasted by keeping the Capital open.

Do you cheer the dems on when they do this?

BTW, the Gov. of Oregon did the same dang thing when she was a State Rep. Did not work then, and won't work now.

“Do you cheer the dems on when they do this?”

If those are the rules then the people who created the rules probably considered this kind of thing and that’s how they wanted it to work.

So if those are the rules then those are the rules.

Amend the rules if you don’t like them.

For now, I’m happy that at least some Republicans are willing to do something to go against the tide of socialism.
