The impending House gun bill has a new number: H.4135. In a twisted end-run around the normal processes, the House leadership pulled a fast one again.
In order to avoid the normal bill process, the Speaker had House Ways & Means add the current gun bill language to an existing budget bill, H.4090. Then House Ways & Means, with no public vote record, conjured and released what amounts to a “ghost bill”, H.4135, in order to get it to the House floor for a vote on Wednesday, October 18, 2023.
Keeping with their fast-paced, sleight of hand, Houdini like procedures, we understand that amendments to H.4135 are due by 5:00 pm today, Tuesday, October 17, 2023. That means that no one will have time to ensure that the language was not changed internally before being released. It also means that people will have no time to review amendments prior to the bill hitting the floor.
This bill simply cannot be fixed … or exorcised.
