Friday, May 7, 2010

The conference committee report on H. 590 is on the Senate Calendar this morning. There shouldn’t be any problems with getting a rules suspension; passing it in the Senate and messaging it to the House. There another rules suspension is needed to bring it up for a vote. Assuming all goes well, and this does not get mixed up in other issues, the bill should pass today. If you want to read it, it is printed in full in the Senate Calendar. Again, if you are interested in the June 7 and 8 CLE program you really do have to read the bill to understand the nature of the work and what will be required from the “mediator”. Now I put that in quotes because, after you read the bill, you’ll see that it contemplates a somewhat different role for the mediator.
So far no action on H.470; at least none to report on here.
More later.
