No bill; amdt with limited application to a few agencies. It simply prohibits discrimination by federal contractors in hiring.

@noprezzie2012@justinamash@CarolVicic Yep. Strike 2 for Amash after last week's vote. About to write him off. Very disappointing. -
You'd be rewarding organizations that make false claims and colleagues who don't read bills.

@justinamash@noprezzie2012@CarolVicic You're claiming you were ONLY one to read & understand these bills?@Raul_Labrador@RepThomasMassie -
No. A few colleagues do understand and simply disagree on policy. But the effect of the amendment is not as HA suggests.
-
Still unclear why you voted to pass this; it sounds like you chose policy (and the effects thereof) over principle. No?
-
the government isn't allowed to discriminate. Amash is supporting that principle.
-
unfortunately the Amdmts he supported aren't so cut & dry; its already established that Gov cant discriminate

@justinamash@CarolVicic 1st, thank you for serving with solid Conservative values & principles. 95% is awesome! https://www.conservativereview.com/members/justin-amash/ … -

@justinamash@CarolVicic 2nd, watchdog groups see it otherwise The loose wording opens door to administration abuse http://heritageaction.com/2016/05/vote-maloney-style-amendment-vote-president-obamas-radical-transgender-bathroom-guidance/ … -

@justinamash@CarolVicic (3/4) we need smaller government, less legislation and less regulations. Redundant legislation is .. redundant. -
.
@justinamash@CarolVicic (4/4) if the amendment is consistent with existing federal law, then the amendment is redndant & should fail. -
.
@justinamash@CarolVicic (and that assumes existing federal law is correct and proper) Even an innocent nod to Obama sends wrong message.

could you explain how exactly this is "consistent with federal law"? Is it consistent with Conservative values?

To be clear, scope always limited at first. Sets dangerous precedent!
