Rep. Mike Flood, R-Neb., faced intense questioning from people at a town hall Tuesday, at one point conceding that he did not read a provision in the House’s “Big Beautiful Bill” before he voted for it, triggering loud protests from the audience.
The town hall was held in a high school in Seward, Nebraska, and livestreamed on YouTube by News Channel Nebraska — a media network founded and owned by Flood.
Flood admitted he did not read the full bill when an audience member asked him why he had voted in favor of a provision that would make it harder for judges to enforce orders holding parties before them in contempt for defying court orders.
Citizens knowing more about the bills that reps vote on than the reps that vote on those bills defeats the purpose of those reps in the first place. They were supposed to know this shit for us. He’s inexcusably unqualified if his constituents are educating him about the bill he voted for.
So are we about to fuck shit up or no
I’m sharpening my pitchfork. My guess is that SCOTUS might rule this unconstitutional but I trust them about as much as a junkie in a pharmacy.
You didn’t need to qualify it.
He literally said it out loud. If I were in his district I would be furious.
