This is a messaging bill - a bill designed to tell something to a constituency, rather than to become law. - It is jockeying to cultivate influence. The idiocy contained within the bill itself probably doesn't even have the sincere support of the signatories... If it is politically aggrandizing, then the text doesn't matter too much.
Absolutely, and there is too much horrifying probability behind that. Procedural reform to where that kind of thing isn't as likely or possible would be nice. I've chuckled a few times wondering how well they would all do if they had to use github issues.
