Under a Democrat controlled Congress. Presidents, as anyone who has read the US Constitution knows, do not introduce legislation.
Have you read Article I, Section 7, Clause 2 yet so you can learn about what the document says about passage of a bill. You really need to get that done.
As long as Nasty Nancy is the head of the House, it is not dead. They passed it so it is never dead to them. What better way to shut up people like me?
Until it is reintroduced again in the 111th Congress, it is dead. It requires both houses of Congress to enact a law. A bill passed in the House and never reaching the Senate floor for a vote is dead, deceased, extinct, gone, kicked the bucket, pushing up daisies, toast, finished, kaput!
If the bill is reintroduced in the current Session of Congress, then you may have something to complain about. But until that happens, you are whistling in the wind, tilting at windmills, fighting imaginary foes.
Trust me, there is plenty to complain about that Congress has actually done, without having to waste your time worrying about a bill that does not exist.

Are you referring to the part where legislation passed by Congress becomes law automatically after 10 calendar days (excluding Sundays) while Congress is in session? No Presidential signature is required.
Or were you referring to the part where it says both houses of Congress must pass the legislation before a bill can become law? Something this bill failed to do in the 110th Session of Congress.

Surely since the administration wants to close down Gitmo they could house several there and some of the other closed prisons could be repaired to house a few more of us when they come after us.
Riiight.
Use a foreign prison to hold American citizens.
That would go over well...NOT.
I am sure I could but ya know yall complain to much when I post fox news stuff.
I bet it will those evil christians clinging to their guns and religian . He warned us but our idiot parentless self loathing slave owning kids voted for his ass anyway !
It's a sad day when some conservatives hate the American President so much that they'll readily slurp up Russian propaganda. Traitors.
We have a lot more reason to dislike him ' than you did to vote for the illegal loving , terrorist supporting'Ayers,Wright ' liberal military destroying rumored foreinger ' .
This bill HR1955 was produced during the Bush years. (if those dates are correct) It looks like a dead bill!

My point was/is how can it be a Obama Law? When it was during the Bush years?
Bush would have jailed 500,000 Americans This is what we get with having "bad" links posted.
