Please correct me, but wasn't having a debate about the bill the only way to get its contents into the open?

I can see voting for debate for that reason, to flush the real facts of Democrat ambitions into the light.
I can see the strategy in this. When there is a vote everyone is on record and they’ll be held responsible for their votes. Also, this will maybe make the NRA ratings a little more meaningful since I think some got good ratings in the past that didn’t really deserve them. Hopefully seeing your Senator vote to steal your freedom will wake some folks up. Obviously the danger is that the Bill actually passes, but I guess we’ll see.
