“I agree with Senator Hatch--that many of those who are now attacking the bill in newspaper advertisements and elsewhere have not read that language and need to understand that they are attacking a bill that no longer exists.

But they do, and they can keep the emotion up, if they continue to attack that which we have long since abandoned.”
