    The GOP loves whining and not doing their job. These people are being paid to represent people, by wilfully abusing quorum to stall the process they are doing their constituents a major disservice.

    Filibuster if you want to stand there and defend against change you disagree with, but using absence as a political weapon is slimy and low effort.

        Does that go for both sides? We visited Portland a while back, some of it looked like a 3rd World Country…and we all know what party is in control…
