The specific query doesn't show up any more. Can you give the bill number that caught your eye? It's formatted like S.####.
I heard one of my favorite "poke fun of the English language" quips this morning...if "con" is the opposite of "pro", is "congress" the opposite of "progress"?
Many of the "fun" resolutions passed through the various legislative bodies do serve to keep the elected Representative in touch with the goings on of the people they represent! If you've ever received a legislative citation for some achievement with all the whereas and wherefores, its a really cool memento of the occasion.
