HERO MIKE LEE to Force Roll Call Vote on SAVE Act Before Recess
STATEMENT ON ROLL CALL VOTE ON PRO-FORMA ADJOURNMENT SHAM
EUGENE DELGAUDIO STATEMENT
Eugene Delgaudio said:
"RINO JOHN THUNE HAS BEEN TOLD BY PUBLIC ADVOCATE: "Public Advocate recommends ending vacation time or end the pro-forma sessions or both."
Senate leader John Thune is sneakily plotting to have 47 day pro-forma session and calling it "vacation RECESS". This is a parlimentary fraud as he openly intends a pro-forma break -"without objection"- by the Senate to prevent President Trump from recess appointments. This fraud has the complicity of Democrats and the news media," says Eugene Delgaudio, president of Public Advocate. Delgaudio added "This heroic move by Senator Mike Lee, joined by Rick Scott of Florida, another hero, will help expose the corrupt practice of John Thune.
Sen. Mike Lee (R-Utah) has openly promised to be the one senator necessary to force a roll call vote exposing who will or will not vote for crucial election integrity legislation just before the August congressional recess.
Congressional rules acknowledge that the ability of any senator to demand a roll call vote is grounded in Article I, Section 5, Clause 3 of the U.S. Constitution, which states that "the yeas and nays of the members of either house on any question shall, at the desire of one fifth of those present, be entered on the Journal." Therefore, it requires only one senator to start the process for such a vote.
Notably, election reform is wildly popular not only with Republican but even with Democrat voters. The SAVE America Act has bipartisan voter support.
Scott Presler begged that one senator "to object to unanimous consent & 'ask for the yeas and nays.'" Mike Lee replied on X: I'LL DO IT.
Lee subsequently reshared Presler's message while tagging Senate Majority Leader John Thune (R-S.D.). "I hereby object to any effort to put the Senate into recess in August-at least until such time as the Senate has passed the SAVE America Act-and hereby request a roll call vote," Lee wrote, making it clear to the whole country what he was doing and putting Thune on the spot. "Do not assume you have my consent. You do not," Lee warned Thune.
