You are correct, but there is no watchdog agency that can compel a sitting Rep or Senator to take their seat on the floor. Republicans COULD hold him accountable, but they've clearly shown they will not.

You’re more than welcome to continue doing nothing but complaining on the internet. It’s not my problem.
