Arrr! 'Tis a tally of 26 decrees that becometh laws in the year 2023, mateys!
2023-12-19
Avast ye scurvy landlubbers! Arrr, despite havin' a mighty stash o' 700 votes this year, the scallywags in the House be but a sorry lot, passin' a mere 26 bills into law. Blimey! The reason be a cursed mix o' wee majorities, a divided government, and a right wing lot hell-bent on shacklin' the government. Savvy?
Arrr me hearties! In the ol' tongue of a 17th century pirate, it be a sad tale I be tellin' ye. The House o' Representatives, with all their mighty powers, could only manage to pass a mere 26 bills into law this year. Aaar, ye may be wonderin' how this be possible with more than 700 votes cast!Well, me mateys, there be a few reasons for this unfortunate outcome. First off, the majorities be as small as a flea on a rat's hindquarters. The scallywags in the House be splittin' their votes, arguin' like a crew of drunken sailors over every little provision and amendment. 'Tis a wonder they managed to agree on anything at all!
And let us not forget the cursed divided government! The House be controlled by one party, while the Senate and the Presidency be controlled by another. 'Tis like tryin' to navigate treacherous waters with a broken compass and no map. No wonder they be runnin' aground so often!
But the real trouble be those right-wing landlubbers who be wantin' to tie up the government like a hog on a spit. They be believin' in small government, less regulation, and more personal freedom. Arrr, they be like a gang of pirates who be plunderin' the government's coffers and settin' it adrift!
So, me hearties, that be the sorry state of affairs in the House o' Representatives. 'Tis a wonder anythin' gets done at all! But fear not, for the fightin' and squabblin' be part of the game. We can only hope that in the future, they'll be gettin' their act together and passin' more bills into law. Until then, let's raise a tankard o' grog to the chaos and mayhem that be the U.S. Congress!
