21. Red Herring Amendment
As someone aptly named it earlier.

Watch for this one to be pushed instead of a real amendment, like Rush Holt's.

In fact, this is probably being done to make the GOP machine look like it's doing something, when all that's happening is making the process drive right up VoteHere's lane.

We're about to be bamboozled again folks.

Get on the horn to your legislators and demand they only back HR2239, that you understand the funny business in this amendment, and that you won't accept funny business any more.

I have a bad feeling that those congress people who would't get on board Holt's bill will flock to this one, then say, "See, I am doing something."

Hit'em hard NOW before it happens. Make then KNOW this travesty is not acceptable.
