I'm so confused. I was gonna make a new post but I'll just ask here.
Nancy Mace introduced the bill. https://www.congress.gov/bill/119th-congress/house-resolution/1100 The website is crap right now. But the title is "H.Res.1100 - Directing the Committee on Ethics to preserve and publicly release records of the Committee's review of violations or alleged violations of clause 9 (as it pertains to acts of sexual harassment) and clause 18 of rule XXIII of the Rules of the House of Representatives.
TO PRESERVE AND PUBLICLY RELEASE
The above link, in my 1st comment, shows that is passed.
Vote Question: On Motion to Refer
Vote Type: Yea-And-Nay
Status: Passed
VOTES
yea: 357
nay: 65
present: 1
not voting: 9
Is there a double negative trickery I'm missing or what? The way I read it, they voted to have it released...
What if it is used for money laundering like a Congress member decides they need say $100,000, so they accuse another member of sexual misconduct. Then collect $100,000 that is kept hidden from the public ???
The vote question was to refer to committee with instructions. If this vote failed, then the entire House of Representatives would have voted on the resolution itself. If that vote failed, it would have led to a huge scandal for Congress. This is some chess being played by the Deep State.
Oooooh ok. I knew there was some kind of "trickery" / "chess" being played, I just couldn't get the dots to connect with my somewhat limited knowledge of the procedural ins and outs. Now I think I understand.
It was a vote to basically bury the resolution.
