If I were the general secretary of the union representing the staff of this House we would be going on strike over this issue, if only because of the lack of respect for the people on whom the Members depend. We praise the staff here at the end of each session and speak of the importance of what they do. The Committee on Procedure and Privileges and every committee of the House relies on them. We would be nowhere without them. At the same time, we cannot give them any input into the commission – even a non-voting or ex officio role. It is not right.
