All 14 pages
A giant of the House.
All 14 pages. My god the sacrifices people are expected to make just to do their jobs as legislators. They’re actually expected to read the bills before voting on them. It’s inhuman.
(Actually, they’re not, at least not by themselves and their higher ups, not all the time, because we’ve seen those genuinely massive (i.e. more than 14 pages) bills whiz from introduction to passage in a few hours when McConnell is cracking the whip.)
Thoughts and prayers to Rep. Greene in these trying hours.
She should get Ted Cruz to read it to her. I mean, Green Eggs and Ham had a lot more than 14 pages, and he got through that without any problems.
Maybe AOC should have included pictures to explain the whole thing. 14 pages? My job requires me to read that much regularly.
Yes, but you probably needed to demonstrate competence in literacy in order to get your job. (Correct me if I’m wrong.) Members of Congress, evidently, have no such requirement.
“Like we agreed” made me laugh. It makes it sound like they had a lengthy negotiation about exactly how many pages of the bill she had to read before they could have the debate. I assume that AOC’s starting point was ” you should read the whole thing”, so MTG failed to haggle her down on that. Yet still she reminds AOC of the terms of their agreement like a toddler reminding a parent that they promised the child she can have ice cream if she eats all her broccoli.
Joke’s on MTG, because she’s about to be served a big bowl of broccoli ice cream.
