This was the March 2008 House vote to pass the Genetic Information Nondiscrimination Act of 2008, also called the Paul Wellstone Mental Health and Addiction Equity Act of 2008. The bill was never approved by the Senate in this form. It was later co-opted by the Senate as the "vehicle" for the quick passage of the economic stimulus bill, by replacing the entire text of the measure with the stimulus bill.

I thought no Rep in the House voted for the stimulus bill. Isn't it misleading to equate HR 1424 with the bailout?

You provided information that I did not understand. I did this as a place to start, and will appreciate any constructive criticism or improvement. I feel we need a simple hit list for repelling this assault.
