US SENATE HAS SAT ON HEZBOLLAH INTERNATIONAL FINANCING PREVENTION ACT SINCE MAY


The United States Senate has failed to move the critical Hezbollah International Financing Prevention Act of 2014 forward, notwithstanding that the House of Representatives passed it several months ago. The bill has been stuck in a Senate committee since May. Will someone kindly wake up over there, please,because the holidays are coming.

One bill monitoring source gives the bill only a 4% change of passage this year, based upon past performance in the Senate, and the lack of interest, as demonstrated by the fact that nobody moved the bill out of committee in six months. This bill is too important to die.
