Apology if contained in another post

I want to know who actually voted yes or no on a bill, no voice votes, cloture or pass the bill to find out whats in the bill BS, no renaming bills something like "The Patriot Act" and inserting totally unrelated amendments into it. Bills should stand alone.

Agreed.

Further: ALL Bills 'Signed' into Law must actually be signed by the Executive by hand and in Person: NO ABSENTEE EXECUTIVE OR PRESIDENTIAL E-SIG OR AUTO-SIG ROBO-SIGNINGS SHOULD BE ACCEPTED AS LEGAL.


Bills should be posted in their final form for viewing by the Public for a reasonable period before any votes upon them.

ALL Language in a Bill should have it's Author(s) noted within the text or in accompaniment with the text of the Bill so that it is known who wrote what and worded it specifically as it appears.

No Bill should have it's contents/language/text stricken altered or replaced after it is passed by Committee, Chair, etc....

Good point Throxx. After seeeing the vote on the debt ceiling I was reminded to include: NO "not voting" or "Present" A simple "yes" or "no" is required.
