Yikes. I would prefer if we don't meddle into politics like this.

You ignore the fact that any legislation needs to go through the US House
of Representatives, and then it should be signed (or conversely, can be
vetoed) by the president. The situation in the US Senate is the most
straightforward, because the Dems seat deficit is smallest (49 vs. 51).
That doesn't mean that after that hurdle is taken, it's a done deal. Quite
the contrary.

We are a project concerned with multimedia software. We are not an American
political organization. Please don't make us one; please reconsider this
patch.
