Congress.org presents MEGAVOTE September 22, 2014 for Georgia's 13th Congressional District:
Recent Congressional Votes -
- Senate: Equal Pay - Cloture
- Senate: Fiscal 2015 Continuing Resolution - Passage
- House: Fiscal 2015 Continuing Resolution - Passage
Both chambers are in recess until the week of November 10.
In the during they will by lying their asses off and begging for votes.
Recent Senate Votes:
Equal Pay - Cloture Vote Rejected (52-40, 8 Not Voting)
The Senate failed to invoke cloture on a bill that would require employers to demonstrate that wage gaps between men and women with similar qualifications and in similar jobs have a business justification. It would prohibit employers from retaliating against employees who share salary information and authorize the Labor secretary to seek additional compensatory or punitive damages in a sex discrimination action.
Sen. Saxby Chambliss voted Not Voting, WTF, highlighted in pink for being a pussy
Sen. Johnny Isakson voted NO
I am glad this did not pass cloture vote, the damned thing is preposterous. Laws set up to protect special groups generally mean some other group is going to get the raw end and probably the bill.
Fiscal 2015 Continuing Resolution - Passage Vote Passed (78-22)
The Senate voted to clear for the president's signature a joint resolution that would provide funding for federal government operations until Dec. 11, 2014, at an annualized rate of $1.012 trillion. It would provide $88 million for government efforts to fight the Ebola virus, provide U.S. border agencies with budget flexibility to maintain current border protection and enforcement activities and extend the Export-Import Bank's operating authority through June 30, 2015.
Sen. Saxby Chambliss voted YES
Sen. Johnny Isakson voted YES
This is what you come back to work for, to spend more money, what about all the shit you fucked up, or didn't address at all.
Recent House Votes:
Fiscal 2015 Continuing Resolution - Passage Vote Passed (319-108, 4 Not Voting)
The House voted to pass a joint resolution that would provide funding for federal government operations until Dec. 11, 2014, at an annualized rate of $1.012 trillion. It would provide $88 million for government efforts to fight the Ebola virus, provide U.S. border agencies with budget flexibility to maintain current border protection and enforcement activities, and extend the Export-Import Bank's operating authority through June 30, 2015.
Rep. David Scott voted YES
Everybody drones on and on about how they are going to control costs, yet in the end elected politicians feel trapped into maintaining the inertia flow of government spending. I do not blame Mr. Scott for the vote, the Republicans in their desire to appear 'considerate' jumped on this like a trout on a mayfly. They are for evermore eager to prove how they can bring the bacon home, all while currying favor with business representatives to get the cash for reelection campaigns. Yes you guys should be so proud of spending more beyond your means in such a statesmanlike and bipartisan manner, only proving that you are in the majority, roughly 75%, of the whole who ignore your responsibility.
