I have listened to whether this has constitutional questions. This bill is riddled with constitutional questions. Even the sponsors have said some of it will be thrown out by the courts. But I do know this: Without this amendment the supporters of Shays-Meehan are saying that while soft money may be bad, it is not bad enough to ban right here right now. There is a word for that, Mr. Chairman. It is hypocrisy. I urge approval of the amendment, and I will ask for a recorded vote.
