Speaker Ryan Looking To Punish Lawmakers Who Live-Stream On The House Floor

In response to Democrat’s gun control protest in June, Speaker Paul Ryan has introduced a rules package that would fine any lawmaker who live-streams or records video while on the House floor. The proposed rule changes include a $500 fine for first time offenses, and $2,500 fines for any subsequent offense. The fine would be taken out of lawmakers' paychecks.
