First 8 pages are headlines from the news. Next 9 pages are spent defining terms and creating positions to spend more tax dollars. Last 2 pages are vague paragraphs about task forces and "appropriating" funds.
This bill is practically incoherent. Did any of the sponsors read it?
They don't have to actually read bills as long as it has a name that no one can vote against. I mean, who wouldn't vote to stop domestic terrorism?!?
Text of one version of the bill.
Basically it classifies "white supremacists" as domestic terrorists citing a "New York Times op-ed that 'white supremacy and far-right extremism are among the greatest domestic-security threats facing the United States.'" It spawns a new "domestic terrorism" agency to investigate any "hate crime" and would reclassify "hate crimes" as domestic terrorism incidents.
