I doubt they could have read it in time even if they wanted to. It was over 4000 pages and they just got it earlier this week.

- commandlinefan 4y agoNo, but they could have voted against it.
- AnimalMuppet 4y agoExactly. Even better would be a procedural rule that no Senator can vote on (or at least for) a bill that they have not personally read in its entirety. You want your bill to pass? Don't make it 4000 pages.
- hitpointdrew 4y agoToo many loop holes, the sponsor of the bill should be made to read it, word for word, on the floor. Anyone who wishes to vote on the bill must remain on the floor for the duration of its reading. And the whole thing should be televised on cspan.
- hulitu 4y agoI wonder what is written in those 4000 pages ? Lorem ipsum ?
