The House has a full staff of parliamentarians to help members with all of this. It’s a very important job! Another rule is that members aren’t really allowed to speak in the 2nd person on the House floor/ in committee. That is why people who aren’t friends say “my good friend” — PolitiTweet.org

Sometimes being a new member of the House feels like being in Hogwarts. There are lots of arcane parliamentary phrases (I jokingly call them “magic spells”) one can learn to speak on the floor or gain exceptions. Deep knowledge of these rules is rare but can be powerful. — PolitiTweet.org

@amber_jane_9 The way it was explained to me was that it defuses fights. When individuals debate hot button issues in the second person ex. “you are hurting people!”, debate can devolve quickly as opposed to being forced to say “my colleague’s assertion of X is insulting to Y community” — PolitiTweet.org
