Prior to the last Republican take-over the House of Representatives one in six votes on amendments were passed by bi-partisan majorities. Since the Tea Party triumph on 2010, that number has fallen to one in twenty.
Now that the Democrats are back in power, some Republicans are urging Speaker Pelosi to return to a more bi-partisan mode, with the impact that bills coming out of the house would be more reflective of right-wing wishes.
What say you? Should Pelosi mimic the behavior of her Republican predecessors or do you abandoning Republican style would be better?
One sign that someone is no conservative is when they flee taking responsibility by running around shouting âfake newsâ. These data show the behavior of Republican leadership. Say there were wrong, say they were right, but donât say that it did not happen.
If you have the data to contradict what was provided show it to the group. The facts stand for themselves.
Iâm going with no, she shouldnât. Voters didnât give them back the house so crap Republicans want could land on Donnieâs desk. Plus, I like when nothing gets done.
As for the OP, Iâm torn. The GOP has been the very antithesis to bipartisanship and working together for the betterment of all of America. And part of me believes they should be shunned as a result of their horrific behavior.
Another part of me believes in bipartisanship as a necessity for good governance.
Does anyone really believe that if the GOP ever reclaims Power in the House that they would continue anything other than a complete and total lack of bipartisanship?
What are you waiting for. Theyâve been saying for two weeks. Do you ever actually look at news?
Separate funding the government â which everyone agrees on â from funding the wall, which is a separate and controversial matter. Return to the bill passed by Senate 100-0 three weeks ago. Stop holding the country hostage to Donald Trumpâ's useless vanity project.
