Hi! Had a dream about one of the phrases which woke me up early this morning. Had a short night! Been up since that time doing an entire read of all the Q posts. I researched the key word for my particular issue, but also noted other key words and questions I have wondered about.

Q: !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[Texokie would like to know about follow through - if congress passed such a set of laws/did action yet?]

Some nice posts there—I had forgotten the empower-the-cabinet-secretaries line, but most of us have a better understanding of what is at stake there now.
