This is how government should work

Regardless of how anyone feels about the omnibus spending bill, I like how the voting looked. It’s good to see that compromises can happen without bitter partisanship.

Edit: no wonder trump was mad, more Democrats voted for it than Republicans.

I can not remember a recent bill where the voting looked this “random”. Really surprising to me who voted for and against it on both sides of the aisle.
