Answer by A Balrog of Morgoth
Well, on it's face, this sounds like a good idea.

However, do remember that this is the U.S. Congress we are talking about, so the end result may very well bear no resemblence to the stated intention.

Yes, it sounds like a good idea. But, I am wondering what else is in that bill. I guess it's better than what they are trying to do in Texas. One Rep. is trying to pass a law to allow horse slaughter and sell their meat to foreign countries. Because you know that there are too many horses running in the wild and they have to be stopped *rolls eyes*. I'm soooo glad my tax money goes to this nonsence.
