Both EMFand ER are now Confirming the passing of H.R. 4423 with out any amendments. ER reports the vote was split down party lines. Democrats Voting "Yea":4; Republicans Voting "Nay":6 to the amendments.(The amendments were designed to weaken the original bill in favor of the Ethiopian government)
It really is time for Ethiopian Immigrants to Reconsider Alliance with Democrats.
The original bill will now move forward to the full International Relations Committee, Chaired by Congressman Henry J.Hyde(Republican) from the 6th Congressional District of Illinois.
