It's time for a PARTY!

 

[hawaiisb]

Great news!

 

[LittleLightShining]

Woohoo! Tomorrow is going to be interesting!

 

[chris198]

Does this mean the bill is going forward?

 

[iddo]

wow...!
it might be a good strategy to keep pressuring more congress members to cosponser, both because Fed lobbyists might try to take some of the weaker ones off the list, and to increase the consensus so that the Senators will see how much popular support there is for transparency.

I feel Kucinich is just jumping on the bandwagon.

Makes me questions who he is working for. Definitely weird...

I bet Kucinich had his eye on this bill the entire time waiting so he could be #218 the tipping point number for the bill. Very clever! Looks Good!

Yep. Because his name is the one in the press release.

Nice that Rep. Kucinich is on the 1207 bandwagon, regardless of intent.

Am I right in thinking that they have the majority, and Pelosi can't stop this coming up for a vote now?

More important than Kucinich, Jackie Speier is the 36th member of the Financial Services Committee to co-sponsor. That is now a majority (36/71 = 50.70%)
