No more pay raises for themselves, same insurance as we have, no huge pile of money once leaving office; etc. Looking forward! |

What else is new? Quoting: Proud Trump Supporter WATCH: GOP Leader McCarthy EXPLODES From House Floor As Congress Holds First Ever ‘Vote by Proxy’ – One Democrat Voted SEVEN TIMES The House held its first ‘proxy vote’ since Congress first met in 1789 and GOP leader Kevin McCarthy sued to stop the constitutional abomination. 71 Democrats voted ‘by proxy’ in its first vote since adoption of its party-line rule! Rep. Dan Bishop (R-NC) said the proxy vote is an “unprecedented corruption of Congressional process.” A Democrat from Maryland just voted seven times on legislation in Congress. This is NOT what the Founders had in mind when they created representative democracy. One representative should equal one vote." Of course they did. The damned demon Dems aren't even going through the trouble to try and hide it.

Quoting: Depluribus Unum Legitimate question: can someone explain to me how it's possible to vote multi They can vote the same but they still vote. This way they aren't even voting! They are giving away thier vote. Why bother having a congressman at all? Why does the congressman even exist? Just let a few have more votes than the rest?! Well, they've branded themselves as "non-essential personnel" so they can "stay home". So why are they still getting a paycheck? WHY IN THE HELL DO THEY STILL HAVE A JOB????????

Quoting: Depluribus Unum Legitimate question: can someone explain to me how it's possible to vote multiple times, and why proxy voting is any different from in person voting? I'm missing something major. Its not remote voting its letting another representative take your representative's vote! You voted for a congressman but now that congressman has given his vote away to be cast by another congressman. Does New York now represent you? That is pretty messed up, but....why couldn't a representative in person just say "I'm going to vote the same as New York"? That is, what does voting in person add to prevent this? I'm not trying to be difficult. I'm really just trying to understand why this is such a major issue. And here is the other reason she is doing this. Usually, and we have seen this many many times in the past, if a Senator or House member is absent from the Floor, THEY CAN'T VOTE. So, if a member is sick, that is one vote lost for his party. At times, votes have been delayed just for this reason because that person's vote was needed for the bill to pass. Just recently, Rand Paul was quarantined and couldn't cast votes in the Senate. Nancy is trying to get around this. My guess is she has many Dems under quarantine right now and not wanting to "lose their vote" she has instituted "proxy" voting. WRONG, WRONG, WRONG. She is using the virus to change the long held rules because she probably doesn't have the numbers now to win a vote in the House. But doesn't proxy voting, or any other change to the rules, have to be passed by the House? When did the House pass a resolution to change this rule? . DON'T VAX, PROPHYLAX! ____________ There is no anger in Me: If one offers Me thorns and thistles, I will march to battle against him, And set all of them on fire. But if he holds fast to My refuge, He makes Me his friend; He makes Me his friend. (Isaiah 27:4-5) |
