S.84: A bill to establish a United States Boxing Commission to administer the Act, and for other purposes. Co-sponsors Byron Dorgan and Ted Stevens. Baseball hearings weren’t enough, I guess.
S. 327: A bill to authorize the Secretary of the Interior to conduct a special resource study of sites associated with the life of Cesar Estrada Chavez and the farm labor movement. Co-sponsors include Barb Boxer, Ken Salazar and Robert Menendez. Government subsidized, pro-illegal propaganda?
S. 463: A bill to amend the Federal Election Campaign Act of 1971 to clarify when organizations described in section 527 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 must register as political committees, and for other purposes. One co-sponsor, Russ Feingold. You think he’s changed his mind on campaign-finance reform?
S. 952 A bill to amend the Morris K. Udall Scholarship and Excellence in National Environmental and Native American Public Policy Act of 1992 to provide funds for training in tribal leadership, management, and policy, and for other purposes. No co-sponsors. Yep, after all, native Americans were just peaceful folk living in harmony with nature until whitey screwed it all up.
S. 1900: A bill to authorize appropriations for the United States Institute for Environmental Conflict Resolution. No co-sponsors. Not even his Uncle Joe would touch this one.
S. 2890: A bill to amend the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 to provide for a highway fuel tax holiday. Co-sponsors include: Lindsey Graham, Joe Lieberman, Mel Martinez. Well, he has been frank on how he knows nothing about economics.
S. ADMDT.650 to H.R. 1591 (I love this one): Purpose will be available when the amendment is proposed for consideration. The exact same statement accompanied S.AMDT 2974 to H.R. 1585, S AMDT.650 to H.R. 1591, S. AMDT 651 to H.R. 1591, S. AMDT. 2974 to H.R. 1585.
S. AMDT 1190 to S. 1348: To require undocumented immigrants receiving legal status to pay owed back taxes. (emphasis mine, boy he’s one tough hombre) Three co-sponsors: Richard Burr, Lindsey Graham, Arlen Specter.
S AMDT. 29 to S.1: To provide congressional transparency. Co-sponsored by two Senators, Feingold and Graham. Probably thought this one up when they took a bathroom break together.
