The Omnibus Bill
The HUGE Omnibus spending bill passed in the Senate last weekend had something for everyone in it. Just shows that pork still has a lot of fat on it.
-The sage grouse will NOT be considered as an endangered species.
-The E.P.A. will NOT control the lead content of fishing tackle. I always called them "dipsys" but this provision is a "doozy".
-Marijuana will NOT be legalized in the District of Columbia.
-And they instituted a freeze on Joe Biden's salary. In Bidenese this is a REALLY big ___ deal. Let's hope that Amtrak doesn't raise their fares.
Congress is now in recess and will see us in the New Year. And life goes on.
