Re: We Are Under Martial Law! As Declared By The Speaker Last Night!
A parliamentary process:
What is “Martial Law”?
This extraordinary procedure is known as a “martial law” rule because it suspends the normal procedures and safeguards and allows the House Leadership to operate in a more authoritarian fashion. It enables the Leadership to seek to ram a bill or conference report through before the Members have the opportunity to fully understand what they are voting on.
