Chip Roy, the US House Rep from Texas, destroyed the idea of sending a $40 billion aid package to Ukraine. Roy let his frustrations with the rushed bill out on the House floor. He said that staffers are attempting to pour through the pages of the hefty bill to see what’s in it. This is a common tactic of the Federal Government. They slap thousands of pages on Congressmen’s desks and expect them to vote on them in a day or two. This is a ridiculous practice that should cease. It is clearly done to coerce Congressmen to vote on a particular thing with all sorts of hidden goodies inside for the friends of those who advocated for the bill in the first place.
