#shorts On 1/9/2023, Rep. Steve Scalise, R-La., the House majority leader, said that ending proxy voting would increase collaboration and speed up the voting process. “It’s about making Congress work again where people have to show up and do their jobs in person like everybody else in the real world has to,” Scalise said. “We’re making members of Congress show up to work again,” said Scalise. “For the last two years you’ve had proxy voting, including just a few weeks ago where you had dozens if not over 100 members of Congress voting from a remote location on a $1.7 trillion spending bill that was written in dark of night and dropped on members before they could read it. That is the kind of thing that people are sick of and we need to change.”
