That is very sad. When people don’t understand the reasons behind the set up of our government it sure makes it easy to convince them to jump right off the cliff. You did not say, did the bill pass?
No, it did not. I wrote my local state senator and congressman (congresswoman??). The senator did not respond and made no effort to block it, but the congresswoman sent a very nice reply and went out to her way to get support to block the bill. Right now it is “dead”.
