  • They stopped enrolling new Sen­ate bills.
  • They refused to accept and refer House bills to com­mit­tees.
  • They denied Repub­li­cans the right to give expla­na­tion for their votes against their bills, despite Sen­ate rules allow­ing any sen­a­tor to explain their vote with­out time restric­tions.
