Now if congress debates additional relief later on, and Paul votes for it without demanding that it be laid for, that would be hypocritical.

This assumes that the article i posted, is accurate. if those are indeed the facts, there’s zero hypocrisy. We can debate whether or not it’s worth requiring that a second round of aid be paid for up front. But Paul so far has acted the same way with the KY relief, as he did for previous votes on disaster relief.

By definition, there no hypocrisy if he follows the same process each time.
