As bills go forward I will link them, get a projected cost, and overview them.

Most likely there will be several posts to catagorize each type of bill, so that you doan gotta dig through just one giant post.

The only way for people understand whats going on in Washington is to actually see it, thats what this thread will do, in a way as to be as uncomplicated as possible.

I wont be covering everybill, just the ones I consider important, because the contents effect all americans, their rights, or their bussiness.

That may be hard to do because 90 percent of the legalese in modern congressional bills is put there to confuse the public, but I will do my best.


Here is a link to CAGW, a link I stole from a fellow from over in the polical forum.
