Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-N.Y.) on Monday asked people on Twitter to recommend reading material for 2020.
But her request likely did not elicit the response she was hoping for.
As a Member of the @EdLaborGOP, I believe passionately in the importance of reading & #literacy. At the end of every year, I share my personal reading list which my constituents ask me about during the year. Thx #NY21 fellow bookworms for your recs! https://t.co/BsNc3Xekjk 📚🐛👩🏻🏫

Comment with recommendations for the 2020 reading list 👩🏻🏫
— Elise Stefanik (@EliseStefanik) December 30, 2019
Many tweeters snarkily suggested the U.S. Constitution to Stefanik, who staunchly defended President Donald Trump during the House impeachment proceedings.
Some highlighted former President Barack Obama’s reading list from 2019.
Others recommended her Oath of Office, former special counsel Robert Mueller’s report into Russia interference in the 2016 election and Trump’s own tweets.
You might find this interesting, Congresswoman. https://t.co/nDq8z2vMlw

I would start with the Constitution of the United States 🇺🇸.

You ought to read the Mueller report, then.

This wasn't a well thought out tweet.

(1) The US Constitution.
— 😐 (@25thAmendTrump) December 30, 2019
(2) Your Oath of Office.
(3) Transcripts of the under-oath testimony of Intel and Judiciary Committee witnesses.
(4) Trump’s insane, demented, unhinged tweets.
(5) The Mueller Report.
(6) Your Oath of Office... again.

Here’s a good list for you from a prolific reader 👉 https://t.co/tGS4mEWrrQ

1 - The Constitution
— Scott Jaggers (@JustJaggers) December 30, 2019
2 - Your Oath of Office
3 - House/Committee Rules (for the next time you pull a stunt with @DevinNunes)
4 - Becoming by @MichelleObama (great story of a CLASSY woman)#IMPOTUS #Impeached45
Start with the Constitution, the The Federalist papers.

The US Constitution.
— randibee (@randibee) December 30, 2019
I'd suggest that Stefanik and her colleagues begin with the United States Constitution. And if they've got time, move on to the Federalist papers. https://t.co/6gKkvbhgC6

The constitution, especially about your job, and the whole part about holding the executive to account.
