OK, now the question (my question) is; is this topic in the right place?
Moderators does this belong in the NEWS section?
I say we form a committee to study the text of the proposed legislation. Once the study is finished we can debate the location of this thread. Then, and only then, we can vote on it. Hows that sound?

The Representative from FL would like to remind the gentleman from AZ that this forum is also dedicated to matters that are geographic in nature.
