What EDIG needs is a Private Law....

"Rep. Bob Filner, D-Calif, who's introduced the most private bills in the House this year, hopes his nine pieces of legislation will expedite federal court cases, grant permanent residency status to immigrants, and even extend the term of a patent by two years.

The patent -- No. 5,180,715, held by the University of California -- relates to the "irrigation of internal bladder surfaces in mammals," protecting a unique method of curing bladder infections. It's unclear why the patent deserves a special law."

Forget about the other stuff, if they're here illegally.

From the comments on the article...

"Private laws are the legislative equivilent of Mafia 'favors'."

Dis, get your associates on this.
