Gun Owners Prepare to Seize Senate from Harry Reid
• http://www.dailypaul.com, bierdegardeNormally, bills that pass out of one chamber are referred to a committee in the other chamber. But Senator Paul intervened by using a parliamentary technique to bring H.R. 4118 onto the calendar, rather than letting it be referred to a Senate committee.
Now that H.R. 4118 is “on the calendar,” this means that ANY SENATOR can now “move to proceed” to the bill, thereby CIRCUMVENTING HARRY REID'S STRANGLEHOLD over the Senate agenda.
This is huge.
