I bet we would have shorter and less pork filled Bills

If they cant read the whole thing (and they should), can't their admin assistants put a decent summary together highlighting the most important points...especially those parts that are going to impact the rights/freedoms of the American people?

Somebody has to type up the whole bill. Can't they put a summary together as they are going along typing it up? Actually, it would seem logical that summaries already exist and I am just unaware of the process.

But, nancy said you have to pass the bill ( obamacare) to find out what's in it.
