The Akaka Bill: It’s Baaaccckkk! Gail Heriot

Last year, the Bush Administration finally put the Akaka Bill in its well-deserved grave by announcing the President’s opposition.  But in Washington, nothing ever stays dead …. 

Peter Kirsanow reports on National Review Online that Senator Akaka has now re-introduced the bill.  Calling it “[t]he worst piece of legislation ever analyzed by the U.S. Commission on Civil Rights,” Commissioner Kirsanow obviously isn’t pleased.  Neither should anyone be.  Let’s hope that Bush maintains his resolve.
