The bill was reported favorably by the full committee, and on March 14, 2007, the House passed the bill in an overwhelmingly bipartisan vote of 333-93. The bill also passed on June 13, 2007 in a Senate committee, but was never brought to the floor for a vote, reportedly due to a hold placed on the measure by Senator Jim Bunning (Republican- Kentucky)

As a result, the bill died when the 110th Congress ended as to become law it must be approved by both houses - and so the official cover up continues ......
