HR 8771 is an appropriations bill. Whoever put that language in is a monster as is anyone who didn't find it problematic, but there's a lot more to 8771 than just this.

Yeah that means the overall bill is a must-pass, which makes putting this amendment on it worse.

This isn't the vote on the bill; this is the vote on the amendment. They have been voting on amendments since yesterday.
