The House has put an end to proxy voting.
From Breitbart. House Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) reaffirmed his position on proxy voting Thursday morning …
Join others crying out to the Lord day and night.
“No more proxy voting,” the speaker said Thursday morning on Twitter. “Effective immediately, Members of Congress have to show up to work if they want their vote to count.”

Under the rule, members of Congress were allowed to proxy vote, which means that one member of the House could cast a vote on behalf of an absent member. …

Our senators and representatives need to care enough about our country and the people they represent to be there to vote in person. The pandemic is over !!So thankful for this action of the House of Representatives and praying the Senate will do likewise.
Although I am no expert, I believe that this particular kind of voting has so much room for corruption and manipulation, that it should be opposed at every step in our government. These people were elected and therefore should be there to represent those who elected them.
Thank God our elected representatives will finally have to show up for work. Thank you Speaker McCarthy for restoring order in the House.
