What should be outlawed is the piggybacking onto essential legislation of a “bill” that could never pass on its own. Congresscritters are so afraid of their opponents in the next election criticizing their voting no on a military appropriations bill, without any explanation of the circumstances, that they are “forced” to vote for the double-decker bill. Can someone please introduce a reform of this practice? It affects both parties really.

Maybe next century after history has been revised.
Don't expect the RINO's to get it done.
