The broken GOP has a majority in the House in name only. It’s giving frightening new meaning to the old saw about politicians’ forming a circular firing squad.

    It seems like it. They purposely cause things to just not function, then say government doesn’t work. In Oregon, they are trying to avoid purposely driven slow downs by keeping tabs on attendance for senators and if they miss like 10 appearances for voting, they are bared from running for office again. Measure 113 which was passed in 2022 in Oregon. However, it’s being challenged currently, so we’ll see what happens.

    It’s a good idea to force collaboration.

    Edit: link to the actual measure for those interested.
