NOT NORMAL -- Democrats need to shut down the Senate. Everything. Block / delay every damn thing.

42. House is similar

The Constitution requires that a quorum, defined as a majority of the House, be present on the
floor when the House transacts business. The House, however, always presumes that a quorum is
present unless and until its absence is demonstrated conclusively. The rules of the House strictly
limit the occasions on which a Representative may make a point of order that a quorum is not
present. In current practice, Members usually make such a point of order only when a vote is
taking place. If a majority of the Members fails to respond to a quorum call or participate in an
electronically recorded vote conducted in the House, the House must adjourn or take steps
necessary to secure the attendance of enough Members to constitute a quorum.
