Yes if you read Thomas closely HR 46 passed the house on 4/13/99, but SR 39 the senate version died out. HR 46 sits in the senate Judicary committee until 12/15/00 when gets discharged, amended, and passed all in one day.
Hopefully this thing will either show back up in the house next session and get crushed, or spend a couple more years in committee.
My real question is what were Senators Steven and Hatch thinking when they did this? They had to have know the House wouldn't get to it until next term.
