It is quite sad that something this important had this kind of procedure. Now, I got a bill at around 9 o'clock or so. I was told it was the most recent draft. I read through that, and I got through it in time to have a number of questions highlighted, tagged. I wasn't able--my staff was trying--to get a copy of the bill we were going to vote on. I got it right before the buzzer goes off that we are going to have a vote in 15 minutes. This is no way to handle something so important. Part of my problem, my concerns and questions I couldn't get answered: Is this going to put some people out of business? I get over here, and people hadn't read it, so they can't answer my questions. This is no way to handle billions and billions of dollars when we are trying to help people, and we don't even know whether we will help them or hurt them. ____________________
