I think I really need to learn about how and why unrelated aspects can be part of the same bill. In this case the stimulus, Section 230, election advisory committee and election access disclosure. Seems like they should be at least three bills.

This is, unfortunately, an old and well established legislative practice. It allows parties to combine minor interests with major interests in all-or-nothing bundles. It's essentially a (often misused) negotiation tool.
