 Story: Rep. Istook Introduces Filtering Bill, 7/25/99.
While Rep. Istook has introduced HR 2560 as a stand alone bill, it is also possible that he will offer the language contained in the bill as an amendment to an education appropriations bill coming out of the House Appropriations Committee's Subcommittee on Labor, Health, Human Services, and Education.
Ernest Istook (R-OK) introduced HR 2560 IH, the Child Protection Act of 1999, on July 20.
Istook sponsored a similar bill in the 105th Congress, named the Child Protection Act of 1998.

STATEMENT FROM MAJORITY LEADER BILL FRIST: "I have spoken with Congressman Istook and he assures me that his office is not responsible for inclusion of the IRS provision into the Consolidated Appropriations Act of 2005, the so-called omnibus bill.

 Hastert to Seek Funds For Cut Road Projects (washingtonpost.com)

House Speaker J. Dennis Hastert (R-Ill.), moving to placate 21 angry House Republicans, has promised to seek funds next year for several dozen highway projects that were left out of a recently passed spending bill on orders of a Republican subcommittee chairman.
