H.R. 6407 (109th): Postal Accountability and Enhancement Act Introduced: Dec 07, 2006 (109th Congress, 2005–2006) Sponsor: Rep. Thomas “Tom” Davis III [R-VA11]
Rep. Davis is well known in Virginia for his anti union positions.
This bill was enacted after being signed by the President on December 20, 2006.
PROGRESS Introduced Dec 07, 2006 Passed House Dec 08, 2006 Passed Senate Dec 09, 2006 Signed by the President Dec 20, 2006 COSPONSORS 3 cosponsors (2D, 1R) (show) Davis, Danny [D-IL7] McHugh, John [R-NY23] Waxman, Henry [D-CA30] COMMITTEES House Oversight and Government Reform The committee chair determines whether a bill will move past the committee stage.
Tom Davis was a moderate, VA-11 was a suburb of DC not a hotbed of union busters.
Cosponsors:
Davis, Danny [D-IL7] McHugh, John [R-NY23] Waxman, Henry [D-CA30]
The law was so noncontroversial that it passed in both houses with unanimous consent.
Every normal man must be tempted, at times, to spit on his hands, hoist the black flag, and begin slitting throats.
H. L. Mencken
