-Caveat Lector- Congress returns for the lame duck session on Tuesday. Thursday night is the opening of the Clinton Library in Arkansas, so many Dems will be heading out for that. That may mean there is only about 60 hours for the Congress to pass something like nine apporiations bills as well as the "Intelligence Reform" based on the 9/11 whitewash commission.
That bill, of course, has all kinds of police state measures such as turning drivers' licenses into national ID cards (or tri-national ID cards in the House version), an "integrated screening system" (i.e., biometric checkpoints), other bits and pieces of the so-called "PATRIOT II Act," etc. Most reports have been saying that the Senate and the House are at an impasse as to how much power to give the new "intelligence direcotr" over the budgets of all the intel agencies. However, Congressional Quarterly's CongressDaily reported that the Senate offer to give the new dirtector the ability to shift only 10 per cent of the budgets of each intel agency (including military intel agencies) was met well by the House. So we should not be blase' about the possibility this will not pass. Call the members of the conference committee and tell them to take out all Natinal ID provisions! The Senate National ID provisinos are known as the "McCain amendment." If you're pro-immigration, call the Dem members and tell them to fight against the GOP's jingoistic anti-immigration provisions. If you're anti-immigration or for more secure broders, call the Republican members and tell them not to cave on their responsible immigration reforms. That should help confuse them. Here is a copy of a recent Senate counteroffer -- review for more police state measures and post your analyses to the web. Share it with others. And here once again, is the list of members of the Conference COmmittee negotiating the bill: The staffs working on the National ID provisions mostly consist of the House Judiciary Committee and the Senate Government Affairs Committee.
