it's going to be really hard for them to vote 'no,' as it was when the same bill overwhelmingly passed in the Senate during the last Congress. Either House Republicans come out looking like Trump stooges (not a shock) or this bill sails through the House with a veto-proof majority.

It's game on.

I watched broadcast tv news (grr) tonight and they were all saying it "will be" a Democratic bill and thus unlikely to see the floor of the Senate.

H.R.21 is not showing up on congress.gov yet

How's it feel to be quicker than the official web site?

I think that send it to comittee again if it passes, but I don't expect it to pass.
