I phoned the House Rules comm. this morning. They informed me that
the committee voted 5-4 earlier this week to allow amendments to the
General Export Administration Act on the House Floor.
This should allow a contingent to restore the strength to the act
on the House floor, should Rep. Maria Cantwell and her cosponsors
be able to muster the required votes.
It was obviously a close vote. If you wrote in, know that your letter
probably helped to tip the scales.
