Senate Democrats on Friday blasted Republicans for trying to force their unpopular tax scam through in the dead of night.
Senator Dick Durbin took to the Senate floor to remark that some of the last-minute changes were literally being handwritten just hours before the Senate would need to vote on it.
Durbin raised the handwritten portion in the air and commented on how difficult it is to read the cursive writing.
“This is what happens when you push through a bill, late at night, desperate to pass it, without really stopping to ask yourself, ‘Will this make us a stronger nation?'” Durbin said from the Senate floor.
“Trying to review the #GOPTaxScam but they are making hand-written changes to brand new text as we speak – can anyone else read this?” Durbin tweeted.
