That means that when this bill leaves committee, it's already passed. The co-sponsors alone are more than the required majority.

Wow! All we can hope for is that the Senate really does act as the "deliberative body" that the framers had in mind. But if the bill that comes out of the House can get 60 votes in the Senate, our economy has little hope of long-term growth. I only hope Steve's analysis is correct and that the wording of the bill provides plenty of fodder for litigation.

This one is scary.
If this bill does nothing else, it will provide a bunch of unemployed lawyers with work. Again, the litigation which will occur will keep courts and lawyers busy for a number of years.
