House Dems Adopt Historic Rules Change, Allowing Proxy Votes and Remote Hearings

Bronson Stocking / Townhall Tipsheet

House Democrats passed a historic rules change on Friday that will allow members of the House to vote by proxy and conduct committee hearings and meetings remotely for 45 days. Speaker Pelosi (D-CA) has the ability to extend the remote proceedings an additional 45 days should the Wuhan coronavirus emergency continue past that point. Three Democrats -- Reps. Rick Larsen (WA), Elaine Luria (VA) and Tom O’Halleran (AZ) -- joined with Republicans in voting against the rules change. The move comes as states and local jurisdictions are beginning to reopen.

As long as essential workers are being asked to work, Republicans argue lawmakers should be working in-person as well. Republicans also argue in-person meetings are central to representative government and worry the move will fundamentally transform the nature of the body.
