Message: [QUOTE="wsorbust, post: 1310061, member: 10717"] They haven't been voted on yet, just referred to the rightful committee. I'm under the belief the process is that they were brought to the floor but we still have to wait to see whether they have any possibility of being actually voted on. The more cosponsors the more likelihood of a vote and a pass of the bill is my guess. I'm in the dark. I guess someone will have to read up on how a bill gets passed. lol ;) After a quick look, we're just at the beginning process to pass this bill. I'm sure there's bills that can be fast-tracked through, and these might surely be exceptions but take a look at this page if you're wondering what the process is: [URL]http://www.votesmart.org/resource_govt101_02.php[/URL] It's no easy task to push a bill through, which is pretty evident by the president's own unsuccessful attempts for his healthcare reform.
