My former congressman (Tim Ryan) several times voted Proxy cause he feared getting COVID. Here he was out campaigning out in COVID country, California. That’s now over.
Rep. Thomas Massie (R-KY) celebrated. “Proxy voting has ended in the House! It was rarely used for its stated purpose of dealing with COVID.”
“But it was frequently abused by members to attend fund raisers, campaign, go on vacation, and avoid traveling for work. I’m one of a small minority who never voted by proxy,” he added:
