Boehner: Every Major Bill Should Be Posted Online and Publicly Available for at Least 72 Hours
Loading...
Uploaded by JohnBoehner on Sep 22, 2009
Americans should be allowed to know the contents of major bills before they are brought to a vote in the House. Previous Congresses, including Republican ones, have failed to meet this common-sense standard. But never in history has the failure been more acute than under Democratic Speaker Nancy Pelosi, particularly over the past nine months.
Reps. John Culberson (R-TX) and Brian Baird (D-WA) have introduced a resolution that would require all bills to be posted online publicly for at least 72 hours before they are brought to a vote.

So even though this rule is in place, your chair has been seeming to waive it recently.
You're a hypocrite.

Good for you. Now go and fight your own Party who recently violated EXACTLY what you are saying here during the NPR Defunding Vote.
Come on... go ahead. We'll be waiting

@azcardzfan2005 you fail :D

Ha ha busted you liar. 20 hours not equal to 72!

John Boehner, I certainly hope you are going to be the GOP candidate for 2012!!! You will get the vote of our family!

Mr. Boehner the GOP has a lot of convincing to do before 2012. Right now we Americans are so fed up with the corruption and lies coming from both sides that I am afraid the votes will split and Obama will win a 2nd term. Please, I am begging you and all politicans as Americans to revisit your conscience, our American history and Constitution and take this country in the right direction. Love this country and help preserve its freedoms and values. God bless America.

I know you've been a democratic country for only a few months now, but don't you think you're a little slow, just a little too slow on subjects like reading Bills before you vote and passe them..., G.O.O.D L.U.C.K. with this one A.N.Y. H.O.W...

It's a very good way to run Congress if you don't want any feedback from voters.
