Fury as more lawmakers fall asleep during early morning vote on Trump's big bill
|
[Daily Mail, where America gets its news] Lawmakers on Capitol Hill are still having trouble staying awake through their overnight sessions negotiating President Donald Trump's 'big beautiful bill.'
In the middle of a session that spanned into the early hours of Wednesday morning, it was 71-year-old Rep. Ralph Norman (R-S.C.) who was caught on camera dozing off this time.
| Making Congressional work hard work again, which will encourage those who no longer have the drive and energy choose to make way for young MAGA Republicans eager to enact the agenda. Brilliant. |
The 1:00 a.m. vote on the multi-trillion-dollar bill includes $4.5 trillion in tax cuts, but is widely criticized by Democrats for gutting social programs like Medicaid and food assistance.
Critics claim that Republicans are being bullied by Trump into holding the vote that's forced members of Congress to stay in session overnight on more than one occasion.
| No doubt. And right he is to do so, if they won’t on their own. |
Rep. Teresa Leger Fernández (D-N.M.) tore into Norman in an X post exposing him for falling asleep around 2:15 a.m. during the consequential session.
