It goes to show you that nearly half of the GOP in the House are socialists just like the Dems.

Maybe. What it tells me is that 40 percent the GOP Congressional caucus have no principles by voting for a bill they've not read (another thread revealed that many Republicans were "shocked" and "angered" that the bill had this provision).

Good point about the Congressmen not reading the bill (though I think the same GOP congressmen would vote to pass even if they read it).

H.RES.63 amends the Rules of the House of Representatives to ensure that Members have a reasonable amount of time to read legislation that will be voted upon. Those concerned about this should urge those on the rules committee to bring this bill to the floor for debate.
