I believe bills were always read on the floor... A Long long Time ago. Now these Congress bastards openly oppose reading the bill. “We have to pass the bill to find out what’s in it “. Anyone opposing the reading should be jailed for deraliction of duty and fraudulently posing as a senator
A long, long time ago a filibuster required the Senator doing the filibustering to remain on the floor, in person, speaking for the duration. Now they get to just phone it in.
If Congress can find an easy way not to do their job then they'll jump on it every chance they get.
BILL READING
WE SHOULD REQUIRE ANY CANDIDATE FOR LEGISLATION TAKE THAT POSITION TO GET OUR ENDORSEMENT (MONEY)
