Well even if the dems signed on to the discharge petition, itdoes not mean it will go to a vote. NP can make sure it does not and more than likely would see it never gets an actual vote on the floor.
At least this way it was negotiated away from her and more likely that she will not and could not stop it from a vote. The discharge petition does not guarantee a vote is only pushes it out of committee Nancy decides if they actually gets to the floor for avote.
What is the goal here? To get DC to scrap this crap? This does that. A discharge petition that might not and more than likely will not get an actual floor vote does not help DC residents. (The goal I Believe)
People getting negative over some Dems that in the past would no way in hell sign on to any pro gun bill are now writing a law that tells DC to shove it! Come on guys!
Seems to me some here are more concerned about the politics of the matter rather than actually changing what DC has done.
