Amash Says House Members Won’t Be Able to Read 2,100-Page Stimulus Bill Before Vote Tonight
‘Most members of Congress never read any of it and only vaguely know what they’re voting on’
EXCERPT:
BALLASY: “I’m just asking members about the bill, because they put it up for a vote, tonight supposedly. Have you even been able to go through the text — “
AMASH: “No.”
BALLASY: “ — and see what’s in it?”
AMASH: “No, and I’m voting no.”
BALLASY: “Do you think other members who vote yes are going to have enough time to go through it?”
AMASH: “No.”
BALLASY: “And the vote is supposed to be tonight on the HEROES bill?”
AMASH: “That’s what they say, yeah.”
