Originally shared by Brad AckerIs anyone reading the laws that are passed?U.S. laws are often passed with little time for Congressional representatives to read the laws they vote on. For example, it was reported that last year's $1.1 trillion spending bill — totalling 1,582 pages with 1,278 accompanying explanatory statements — was voted on 44 hours after it had been posted in its final form. When one representative was asked if he read the bill, he responded: “Nobody did.”
Do you have ideas on how to solve such an absurd problem?
