Who told you no more bills...
UPDATE FOR TODAY:
UPDATE (Which is constantly changing.):
MCCONNELL (SHALL I SAY TURTLE TRAITOR OR TRAITOR TURTLE—EH WHICHEVER) DID NOT INCLUDE SB3034 IN THE BILL VOTED ON TODAY—HIS OFFICE IS BLAMING THE DEMOCRATS FOR LOADING PORK...I WAS NOT HAPPY AND REFLECTED SUCH WITH MY COMMENT. PHONE GIRL EVEN GOT SNIPPY W/ME BUT IF WE STILL HAVE THE MAJORITY THEN WE CAN VOTE FOR IT...GAFFNEY ARTICLE SUGGESTS THAT WE PRESSURE DEMOCRATS—EVEN HILLARY TO GET OBAMA TO NOT VETO. As I have said, would he veto with his precious Zika funding (slush fund) that he has been whining for?
FROM TALKING TO CRUZ AND DUFFY’S OFFICES GOING FORWARD FOR NOW (could change), THE BEST BET IS:
1. CALL LOCAL HOUSE MEMBERS BECAUSE THEY ARE ALL, I REPEAT ALL, UP FOR REELECTION (so they might actually care more) AND THE HOUSE STILL HAS AN OPPORTUNITY TO PUT HR5418 INTO THE CONTINUING RESOLUTION...HOUSE MEMBERS NEED TO SUPPORT THE HR5418 AND CO-SPONSOR THE RESOLUTION...Then hopefully get a floor vote on Friday. I asked Cruz office what happens if no Floor vote on CR, and he did not know...
2. CONTACT SENATE LEADERSHIP (MCCONNELL OR CORNYN AND SATELLITE OFFICES MAY WORK BETTER) TO SUPPORT SB3034.
SOME GOOD NEWS IN THE HOUSE-—DUFFY NOW HAS 46 CO-SPONSORS. CONGRESSMAN DUFFY’S OFFICE SAID FOR FOLKS TO ASK CONGRESS REPS TO CO-SPONSOR THE BILL HR5418 AND VOTE YES...I CALLED MINE AND HE SAID HE WAS CONSIDERING IT—PROBABLY SAYING THAT BECAUSE HE IS UP FOR RE-ELECTION BECAUSE HE NEVER EVER HAS A POSITION PRIOR TO A VOTE...ONE OF MY PET PEEVES.
DUFFY OFFICE SAID IT WOULD HELP IF DEMOCRATS COULD PUT PRESSURE ON OBAMA TO SIGN THE BILL WITH 5418 PROTECTING INTERNET FREEDOM ACT PROVISIONS...~ Eh I don’t know why Obama would veto bill with precious Zika funding in it anyway, but that is a concern. DUFFY BELIEVES BEST WAY TO GET HOUSE VOTE IS THRU LOTS OF CO-SPONSORS...BUT THEY DON’T SEEM TO BELIEVE GOP HOUSE LEADERSHIP IS AGAINST IT...
CRUZ OFFICE SAID THAT MCCONNELL DID NOT PUT PROTECTING INTERNET FREEDOM ACT INTO THE CONTINUING RESOLUTION...BUT HOUSE STILL CAN AND THEN HOPEFULLY A FLOOR VOTE ON FRI.
CALLED MCCONNELL’S OFFICE TODAY AND HE IS BLAMING THE DEMOCRATS...THEY WANT TO LOAD UP PORK...IMHO I THINK HE IS RESPONSIBLE AND HE NEEDS TO BE PRESSED TOO...
Who told you no more bills...
No more House bills. That’s the Senate. And it needs a veto over ride. Chance of that happening? Nil. ICANN needed to be in a must pass bill like the CR. It’s over. Unfortunately.

McConnell & Ryan are playing hot potato. Same old beltway scam. They are scum.
