Question for the US Senate Parliamentarian Elizabeth Macdonough
US Senate Parliamentarian Elizabeth Macdonough:
Please explain to me why you are allowing the rules of Congress to be flagrantly broken by the reconciliation budget bill, which contains Amnesty for millions of illegal aliens along with other non-germane unrelated items?
State legislatures modeled after our federal model all have the same rule the US Senate does which requires the budget bill to only contain items that are directly and clearly associated with funding and expenditures.
Green cards, Amnesty, and voting rights for millions of illegal immigrant's legislation is clearly not germane to the budget.
If this budget bill and all of the radical legislative items contained within it, is passed into law using this sleazy tactic designed to bypass the Senate's time-honored filibuster rule, the backlash from the American public is going to be immeasurable.
How could anyone who truly cared about our country throw this kind of political gasoline on the fire at this time when our borders, economy, healthcare, and political systems are in dire turmoil?
The filibuster rule was designed to assure that no political faction holding only a narrow majority could institute radical changes to America's laws and policies. That is clearly the case today with the Democrat's narrow 50 vote margin in the US Senate.
Why are you allowing the subversion of the Senate filibuster rule? Is it partisanship, corruption, or both?
Otherwise, I look forward to your explanation of why you are allowing the Senate rules to be violated by this reconciliation budget bill.
