quote [ North Carolina House Republicans called a surprise vote and overrode Gov. Roy Cooper’s budget veto on Wednesday morning, Cooper said at a press conference Wednesday afternoon.
According to a tweet by State Sen. Jeff Jackson (D-Mecklenburg), almost half of the House members were absent when the vote was taken, which resulted in a 55-9 tally. Jackson said Democrats were specifically told by Republicans that no votes would be held in Wednesday’s morning session. ] Commemorating 9/11 by owning the libs through dishonest and anti-democratic conduct.

I've never understood why Congresscritters are even allowed to not vote when that's literally their job. It's like being a barista who's somehow never around when it's time to pour the coffee.
