Go out and buy incandescent bulbs tomorrow to last the rest of your life!
The repeal of the lightbulb bill failed in the House and here’s the reason it failed:
Boehner brought the bill direct to the floor (suspended the procedure rules) rather than let it go through the committees which he should have done as soon as they took over the House.
This required a 2/3 majority rather than a simple majority. It would have passed on a simple Majority.
Need more to realize that Boehner is NOT a Conservative??
What’s the point of bringing it directly to the floor thus requiring the 2/3 majority? I wonder if it will come up for a vote again under normal rules? Although it probably doesn’t matter as it’s DOA once it gets to the senate.
The vote can be brought up again, with revisions to it.
I’m not sure what you’re talking about?
