Schmitt denied waiver to serve on Senate Judiciary

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

Senate Republicans denied newly elected Sen. Eric Schmitt the waiver he was seeking to serve on the Judiciary Committee. The Missouri Republican now needs to make new committee assignment requests, which is expected to delay the formal organization of Senate committees into next week.

Senate Republican Conference precedent prohibits senators from the same state from serving on a committee together unless one gets a waiver. Schmitt, a lawyer who served as state attorney general before his election to Congress, sought the waiver because fellow Missouri Republican Josh Hawley already serves on Judiciary.

Hawley said he would have been happy to have Schmitt serve on the panel with him but the waiver was denied because there are no open seats on Judiciary.

“He would be a tremendous asset to that committee — and that’s not a comment on anybody else on the committee at all,” Hawley said. “The real problem here is we’re losing seats. I mean, we’re not a majority. And that’s our own fault.”

No Hawley, he'd be an ass hat on the committee just as you are.

2. Your last

sentence says it all. He is exactly that. He threatened school districts at the height of the pandemic if they made children wear masks he would sue them. Last year schools started dropping the mask requirements because things were getting a little better. He dropped all the law suits. One school district however decided to sue him and they are still planning on suing him for his actions against them. They feel they know what is best for their district in circumstances such as the pandemic.
