In a rare moment of bipartisanship, Congress has passed a bill to fund a study on why Congress can't pass anything. The bill, which was introduced by Rep. John Smith (D-CA) and Sen. Jane Doe (R-TX), passed the House by a vote of 420-0 and the Senate by a vote of 99-0.
The study will be conducted by a panel of experts on American politics and government. The panel will be tasked with identifying the factors that are preventing Congress from passing legislation, and recommending solutions for how to improve the legislative process.
The study is expected to take one year to complete, and it will cost $10 million. The money will be used to pay for the salaries of the experts, as well as for travel and research expenses.
Some people have criticized the study as a waste of money, arguing that Congress already knows why it can't pass anything. They point to the fact that Congress is deeply divided along partisan lines, and that members of Congress are more interested in scoring political points than in working together to solve problems.
However, supporters of the study argue that it is important to have a comprehensive understanding of the factors that are preventing Congress from functioning effectively. They say that the study will help to identify specific solutions that can be implemented to improve the legislative process.
It remains to be seen whether the study will have any impact on the ability of Congress to pass legislation. However, the fact that Congress was able to pass the bill to fund the study is a sign that there is some bipartisan interest in addressing the problem.
