Dorgan may have introduced his amendment thinking it would be defeated. Mitch may, in fact, be behind this. And, best of all——no fingerprints!

I don’t know what DOrgan wanted, but it is clear opponents saw this as their best shot at killing it. Because if you were going to PASS a bill, sunsetting the point system is a very BAD thing. The point system is one of the few good parts of the bill.

And yet Sessions voted to sunset it. That means HE saw the vote NOT as a welcome change to the bill, but a way to kill the bill.
