I would have thought the legislators would play these drafts pretty close to the chest. But then again, it’s not like we’re working with experts on the issue.
In their defense though: Writing a bill is very complicated and pressures come from all sides to include and exclude text. Some want to rush and others want gauge public reaction first. All in all, it’s a miracle that the system rolls along at all.
In this case I believe that divine provenance is allowing us a glimpse behind the curtain here.
