Expulsion is all well and good, Mr. President, but you left out Romney.
It is past time for congress to be changed to an all electronic format. Keeping them out of DC and back in their districts could same a lot of real dollars while making them more responsive to constituents and less available to lobbyists. They could still give their boring speeches to which no one listens. No salary or benefits would be needed they can keep making their living at home in their district. Their home boys would be free to visit to express their opinions.
Why did members of House of Representatives leave the Capital in the first place? I don’t recall this problem for the Senate. Sounds to me like Pelosi screwed up (again).
LOL...my favorite movie!
No shortage of popcorn yet either.
I’d rather be watching the NCAA tournament, but hey, watching our “leaders” completely roger this deal is about the closest thing to live drama as we get now...
The Constitution is not a suicide pact.
(Mic drop)
He got elected here in the fourth district because he is the most consistently conservative politician in DC. As frustrating as he can be at times, he will not budge from a strict reading of the constitution.
They shouldbe prevented from ever voting from home period. If they are to do the job, do it at the job site.
And to end the incestuous relationship with lobbyists and big money donors, move the capital building to Aguijan, south of Rota.
It will never be time for all electronic governance.
Respecting the constitution quorum requirement should not be controversial, but it is.
Pass it or welcome to Dem control of Government, most likely permanently.
The 4th is not a coal congressional district and Massie is my congressman.
Nothing against coal, but for accuracy KY is a diverse economic state
I disagree. The decision to spen 2 trillion dollars the day after the case load was announced that its expected to drop some 90%, is sobering. If this is a serious change in direction, there is no way we need $2T.
Shouldn’t we expect the reps to go on record? They are not naming a post office.
Maybe part of his district is “coal country,” but a map of his district suggests that a good chunk of his constituents live in the greater Cincinnati metro area.
So the most important issue today is that this congressman stands by his principles?
The bill is going to pass roll call or not. This is selfish theater. He gives a shit about 1 thing. Himself.
This is not one of those times, IMO.
It doesn't matter how much you don't like it. It's going to pass after the bill was negotiated between the House and the Senate. It's a done deal.
Again, what you think about the contents means jack shit.
It will pass.
Massie is pointlessly making this more difficult than it needs to be. It's going to pass regardless of how the vote is taken.
Massie is right. Trump and Pelosi are wrong.
This much horrible pork at a time like this is unamerican.
Yeah, but I bet he has a lot of voters who come from coal country, and then he will be outed as the solar fascist geek from MIT, that he is.

Same advise will no doubt be given when they pass amnesty the same way and give away our country.
