A US official introduced the Covfefe act because of course
One man is leading a charge against President Trump and his tweeting habits. And his name is Mike Quigley. The U.S. Representative introduced a bill Monday to force the National Archives to include "social media" as part of the Presidential Records Act. What's the name of the bill, you might ask? Communications Over Various Feeds Electronically for Engagement, or Covfefe for short. "If the President is going to take to social media to make sudden public policy proclamations, we must ensure that these statements are documented and preserved for future reference. Tweets are powerful, and the President must be held accountable for every post." The National Archives argued as recently as January that social media posts should be included as part of the Records Act. Quigley has done this kind of thing before, introducing the Making Access Records Available to Lead American Government Openness (MAR-A-LAGO) Act, which would force the administration to turn over the visitor logs from Trump's Florida country club as well as the White House itself.
