Isn’t it amazing when the Democrats push hard for something that’s actually smart and drop it later — only for a Republican to pick it up, and then suddenly they hate it?
Congresswoman Lauren Boebert of Colorado just put forward what shouldn’t be a revolutionary idea, but rather one that’s fairly salient and easy to grasp: Members of Congress should have time to read a bill before they pass it.
Seriously, that’s what she’s asking for. Not a repeal of the National Firearms Act; not a 100 percent ban on all abortions; not an Article V convention of states; no. She’s asking for Congress to take more time to read the bills they pass, many of which can be well over 1,000 pages long.
Naturally, the leftists are losing their minds over it in one breath and impugning the Congresswoman’s intelligence and capacity to do her job in the next.
But here’s the kicker: Didn’t Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez call for the exact same thing just a few years ago? Let’s jog that long-term memory, shall we?
Here’s the shot:
CONGRESS should be able to write any BILL in 25 – 50 pages. That way each CONGRESS person should be able to read any BILL before they vote. All CONGRESS should agree. This would allow them to know exactly what the BILL says and do without depending on others interpretation and not give them the opportunity to not put in non-related subjects or all the pork barrel spending which raises taxes and increase inflation.
Nobody even READS the Bills !!! DANGEROUS
they make them in legal ease english with 1000s of pages so people can’t read it all. If they can’t read it all, how do they enact it? WTF? it’s lunacy to pass a bill without reading it. like that devil pelosi said, we’ll have to pass it to read it. again, WTF?
