Just heard the news! Now a Senate bill will be made. Please go to this link in Activism to discuss.

Halfway there after so many years.

I know, Bea, and it's time!

I'm posting the same note here that I posted in the Activism link - we can watch the House of Representatives proceedings on demand.

I saw that yesterday's was available, which means today's will be available tomorrow for viewing. The debate started at 5:57pm EST and was reported to go for 40 minutes.

The Senate STINKS ... not too enthused about that hurdle.

The bill is watered down from the original version, so maybe we have a chance? I'm sure they'll be counting votes...

Don't know - I'm sure they're working on it -

We can watch the session at www.house.gov/content/feature/story2/ - click on Watch House live over the picture, then when the next picture comes up, click on Session on Demand at the right, then on September 9 session.

The discussion takes place between 8:10 and 8:28. Several speakers present, and they are passionate!
