I suspect most congressmen never see more than a synopsis.

Granted, the 12 appropriation bills are longer than most.
The Defense Approp. bill is
400+ page ...that could be printed in 200 pages if they printed on more than half the page across.
Members of Congress are provided with a reasonable (IMO) comprehensive summary (w/o the legalese) on every piece of legislation.
In any case, Undertoad would have accused me of diverting the discussion (again!) as he often does
.. if I drifted off from the main topic of discussion.
How about sticking to net neutrality.
