This might have been posted all ready but I thought I would put it up just in case somebody missed it.

3. Would require passage of a test that covers:

Was this what they were trying to pass that got everyone all stirred up? I apologize, I honestly didn't know anything was going on until I went to Walmart to get a box of rounds (in March) and mother hubbard found the pantry was bare. I started paying closer attention to the news after that...

So far, this still hasn't gone any farther than this (thank goodness):

ALL ACTIONS:

1/6/2009:Referred to the House Committee on the Judiciary.

2/9/2009:Referred to the Subcommittee on Crime, Terrorism, and Homeland Security.

Of course, it could be buried within another law that no member of Congress bothered to read before they passed it....
