Senators don't always share bill text online before votes. They should, advocates say

Advocates for open governance are urging Senate leadership to make the full text of proposed bills available for public review before they are voted on. This practice isn't always followed, which has raised concerns about transparency and accountability. The push for this change highlights the ongoing debate about how much access the public should have to legislative processes and could lead to more informed voting and public discourse on proposed laws. It's a crucial step toward ensuring that the legislative branch operates with greater transparency.
