In This Issue: REPRESENTATIVE SANDERS' AMENDMENT DENIED

Rep. Sanders (I-VT) attempted to present an amendment to the 
Commerce, Justice, State 2004 appropriations bill today – the 
amendment was blocked on procedural grounds.

We will continue work on the original bill, H.R. 1157, the Freedom 
to Read Protection Act and will keep you informed of further 
developments.
