It's so crazy it went this long hope we get another crack at voting to change the quorum rules. I really think if they just did that in the first place it still would have passed. I will enjoy seeing those republicans who walked out lose their seats though even if they are replaced with someone equally terrible.

I feel like we should amend that new measure so that legislators are removed from office during the current term if they have too many unexcused absences. They should be replaced by another person if they’re not able to or interested in showing up to their job.
