Distractions….
While we are all sidetracked by Trump/Pence vs. the NFL, Trump vs. Puerto Rico, Harvey Weinstein & the Sexual Predators in Hollywood, Russian Hacking of the US election, or the indictment of Trump campaign leaders, it’s worth noting that the following bills have been introduced in the House of Representatives:
1. HR 861 – Terminate the Environmental Protection Agency
2. HR 610 – Vouchers for Public Education
3. HR 899 – Terminate the Department of Education (may end “free” public education as we know it)
4. HR 69 – Repeal the Rule Protecting Wildlife (seriously? Ridiculous to say the least.)
5. HR 785 – National “Right to Work” (this is actually the ‘Right to fire you whenever your boss feels like it” law and would effectively end unions.)
6. HR 83 – Mobilizing Against Sanctuary Cities Bill
7. HR 147 – Criminalize Abortion (“Prenatal Nondiscrimination Act”)
