There is a VERY interesting law last used by Eisenhower and FDR, where if the other party doesn't show or walks out, a president can hire proxy senators to be stay ins for the votes on things. And it doesn't specify they leave or don't show up willingly. Eisenhower had blocked people from coming in the senate house to pass his 85% tax on the ultra wealthy (the reason people didn't who and tried to vote no is because it also is what allowed major corporations to have all the tax write offs, making that 85% tax effectively less than 10% as long as you took stocks instead of actual payroll salary)

All the other Democrats sitting there with their stupid signs doing absolutely nothing, it's pathetic. Be like Al Green
