"Holds bad actors responsible"? You mean, like Jim Jordan, who undermined our Constitution and then ignored a Constitutionally-issued Congressional subpoena? YOU'RE the bad actor here, Jimmy. Hey, Ohio, have some self-respect: don't elect blatant hypocrites like Jim.

About time Congress passed a Bill that holds Govt accountable, I was tired of seeing Bills limiting Americans rights.

Bad actors like the Chair of the Judiciary refusing to comply with an outstanding subpoena while demanding Hunter (a private citizen) comply with a subpoena issued by said hypocritical, pardon-seeking, coup-plotting Chair ?
