To my conservative friends, please look beyond the fact that this
amendment is sponsored by a Democrat and if your senator serves on
the Senate Commerce Committee please consider urging her or him to
support the amendment. Voting is scheduled for early this PM.
Thanks.....


Is this a committee vote or a full Senate vote? None of my Senators
are on the committee.


It's a Senate Commerce Committee vote.


OK thanks. What's the difference between S.2067 (which has 7 co-sponsors,
all Republicans, and is in the Environment & Public Works Committee) and
S.1578 (introduced by Inouye and co-sponsored only by Ted "Bridge To
Nowhere" Stevens)


Don't actually know, but this specific course of action was
recommended by non-partisan Boat US, an organization that has been
actively monitoring the entire discharge/permit/bilgewater snafu.
