There are records of who introduced and voted for each version of the bill and each change to it; individual responsibility for edits leading up to those actions are internal matters for the individual members offices, who is responsible for the content of the bill is unambiguous. The mystery being invented here is a distraction from that clear line of responsibility, and you are falling for it.
- IAmBroom 10mo agoThe single person who introduced the errant version is in no way guaranteed to know who wrote the changes. Lawmakers have staff (and external interest groups) who build and shape the documents. We may optimistically presume that each lawmaker reads each change that they are proposing... but that's not true.
