Secret Amendments
January 27, 2011
The vote was to prevent Senators from forcing the public reading of amendments offered on the Senate floor. The conservative vote was Nay. Amendments should not be passed in secret. Lawmakers should read legislation before they vote for it and the amendment would reduce the likelihood of them doing so.
