My position is that one numbered Congress can irrevocably bind etc.

Your position has no basis in fact. You appear to be confusing amendments to a bill with bills altering existing statute. Please reconsider your position.

If this is indeed a proposed US Constitutional amendment, then I say have at it and see what happens. An amendment to a particular bill? No.

My bad if I interpreted it differently. Mea culpa.

- No bill shall be altered or amended on its passage through either house so as to change its original purpose....”-

Wouldn’t that have stopped Obamacare? Didn’t Reid gut the contents of a House Bill, and insert Obamacare? Using the same title as the original Bill?
