    Funny how so many super-popular & obviously good for constituents legislation proposals get announced shortly before an election, but almost never actually make it into the law books. It’s so obvious, it’s cringe.

      I can’t tell what makes me cringe more. This politician announcing a “Gamers Rise Up Act” a month before election, clearly pandering for votes, or the non-zero number of sad men who will actually vote for him because video games.

      He’s had a long time to push that legislation. Waited for that genocide money to keep him interested.
