Henry Waxman, disgusted with the Blue Dogs' trying to load up HR 3200 with bogus pork for their districts, has threatened to pull the bill out of his own committee and bring it to the House floor for an up or down vote.
Unfortunately, the alleged House Democratic Whip, Jim Clyburn, isn't backing him up on this:
"I would love to us follow the regular order in doing this," said Majority Whip Jim Clyburn (D-S.C.). "Two weeks ago, I said I wanted us to do this in such a way that we'll have ample time."
[...]
But Clyburn admitted that there was great political pressure to act before August, because he doesn’t want people to think Congress couldn’t get something done and then went on vacation.
Call Clyburn's office and tell him to stop enabling the Blue Dogs and Republicans to kill this bill: Phone (202) 226-3210, Fax (202) 225-9253. Thanks!
