The Amash Amendment (NSA) to the 2014 Defense Appropriations Bill (H.R. 2397): Anyone know

where the official text of the amendment is or where voting results for and against are tracked and\or tabulated?

I've found many articles about the amendment, but can find no mention of the amendment on any official or quasi-official House sites.

I'm a bit new to trying to actually search for legislation (either proposed or approved) online, so any help will be appreciated.

could find no mention of Amash (or of Conyers!). Made me think I was imagining the whole thing, except that the H.R. # (2397) mentions a couple other places I've seen the bill referenced.

I wonder why I cannot find any mention of Amash's amendment. Very strange.

Thanks for posting it, though.

The Amash-Conyers Amendment is also H.Amdt.101 to H.R. 2397. While I also couldn't find roll call infomation about the vote on Thomas I did find a bit about the amendment at this link:
