Adequate Time to Review Bills Before a Vote House #2
Vote Description
This was a vote on Amendment #1 to H.2019, the House Rules, which would require 72 hours for a bill to be available to Members of the House and the public before it is taken up for consideration on the House floor for a vote.
Mass Fiscal Explanation
Mass Fiscal supports a yes vote because we believe this amendment increases transparency. In order for legislators to do their job, they need time to review legislation and make informed decisions when they are expected to vote. Giving them a ample time to read a bill should be expected.
