1. It keeps getting bigger.

Thanks for posting antigop.

[rucky]

2. Is it on the table yet?

or are we waiting for a veto-proof majority of co-sponsors until we take it to committee, where we'll retool it for unanimous approval and free pork for all potential dissendents?

3. Are you kidding!?!?

Pelosi sucks! She will never let this come to a vote!

4. FYI -- we need a companion Senate bill. We don't have one (yet). n/t

6. Anyone out there talking about proposing one?

My useless critters aren't on the forefront of this. It is still warm enough to play golf. I believe their migration down to DC usually happens closer to winter.

7. No Senator that I am aware of. However, Bernie Sanders co-sponsored HR676

during the last session when he was in the House of Representatives.

He is now in the Senate.

Part of the problem may be that Ted Kennedy is head of the SENATE HELP committee and he introduced a bill different from HR 676.

5. Thanks for posting, that is good news (n/t)
