Severable vs nonseverable.

I know how it works with contracts, but not legislation...

It ceratainly DOES apply to legislation and the usual boiler plate clause to make it severable was not in the version that passed.

That has been discussed many times on this forum.

Wrong. See: Champlin Refining Co. v. Corporation Commission of Oklahoma.

No offense, but don't believe everything you read on the internet. ESPECIALLY what is posted by random people on discussion forums.
