You know what I'm saying. There is no wisdom in continuously passing legislation just to be able to say: "Hey look! We passed new laws! We're important!"

well, let's wait for the bills to pass to see what's in them.
the sticky wicket is the this guy is a representative, not a senator. the house of representatives is the part the is actually the most responsible for introducing new legislation, the idea being they are the closest to the people and would therefore introduce bills that are more on behalf of us folks.
which makes what this guy is claiming even more ludicrous. I get that our government is dysfunctional, but a representative claiming that most of the house never ever votes on bills and the speaker of the fucking house is gaming the system by sneaking votes through by nefariously calling voice votes out of the blue that this representative makes a superman-like mad dash to go block bills he can't even cite examples of.
come on now.
