HR45 sentenced to death in committee. Nothing to see here, and actually kind of old news.

HR45 sentenced to death in committee

Almost all bills go to committee before proceeding to floor votes. So how do you know it's been "sentenced to death" in committee, rather than the Congress being so busy with Porkus bills and other obomanations, they may just not have gotten around to this obamanation.

That said, the provisions are more likely to end up attached to some "must pass" bill as an amendment, than to ever be passed out of committee. Just as the Assault Weapons Bill was attached to the Omnibus Crime Bill of 1994.
