I don't get it.. WHY is the govt handling this sort of thing, yet they haven't had time in the past 4 years to pass the Social Security Fairness Act (for police officers, firemen, teachers, etc. who held other "regular" jobs before we worked for the state). I don't get it.

Because this is far more important than letting a bunch of scammers rip off the rest of us who paid our fair share.

The EPA is abusing their powers to ban inhalers and allowing children, teens, and adults who have asthma to suffer and die.

Pass this bill, please.

Does your mommy know you are out of the basement? I know she told you to stay away from her computer but here you are. So did your inflatable girlfriend sprang a leak? Were you playing rough again?

With the start of the new 113th Congress, bills in the 112th Congress, have died, including this one.

Very soon, we will be mothballing bills from the 112th Congress like this one. That means an end to comments, voting, and wiki editing on these pages. To continue the discussion here, we recommend creating or joining a petition and inviting others to join you on it. Petitions don't expire at the end of a Congress.

We announced the upcoming mothballing of bills in this blog post:

There are plenty of new bills already introduced in the new Congress. You can see them at the "Newest Bills" link in the bills tab on the homepage.
