15/x Second observation: “Go on mute” is my new phrase for when my kids need to be quiet. I’ve been saying “turn down your volume knob,” but sometimes I really mean “silent!” — PolitiTweet.org

14/x Chair @RepMaloney again reminds members to “go on mute” because of background noise. Two observations here: (1) this problem isn't limited to virtual hearings. People often discuss amendments among themselves in-person. This can be productive but can also become distracting. — PolitiTweet.org

16/x We paused considering amendments to switch to voting. This is actually the second vote on each amendment. Right after debate, we take a “voice” vote (everyone who agrees says “yes”). The Chair then rules, normally for the party with more members. In this case, the Democrats. — PolitiTweet.org
