	Lipinski (IL03) - Press Releases - Lipinski Opposes Special Interests Exemptions in Extreme Medical Malpractice Bill ... (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		WASHINGTON, DC Congressman Dan Lipinski today criticized powerful special interests, in the pharmaceutical and medical device industries, and the House Rules Committee for obstructing consideration of any amendments to a major medical liability reform bill.
		Congressman Lipinski and a number of his colleagues were denied the opportunity to offer constructive changes that would have incorporated common-sense provisions both Republicans and Democrats could support.
		Unfortunately, much of this bill is a nod to special interests, specifically a provision providing a liability waiver for manufacturers of prescription drugs and medical devices, if their drug or device is approved by the FDA.

	GovTrack: House Record: TRIBUTE TO CONGRESSMAN WILLIAM O. LIPINSKI (108-h20041117-77)

		After Southwest Side political bosses anointed Dan Lipinski to replace his father, Bill, in Congress on Tuesday, the heir was pressed to name an issue on which he and his father disagree.
		Lipinski's only nominal opponent is Ryan Chlada, a member of the Cicero Township Republican Organization, which always backed his father.

		But under special rules governing limited debate on measures considered noncontroversial, the bill required support from two-thirds of those voting in order to advance to the Senate and not a simple majority as is the case with a typical bill.
		He noted that Lipinski's bill received support from more than half the House and that would be good enough for passage under normal rules.
		The House bill also deletes a provision that would have declared it the policy of Congress that O'Hare expansion and Peotone development are required to improve efficiency and relieve congestion in the national transportation system.

		The surprising defeat of Lipinski's bill was one more misstep in a process that has been riddled with trouble and unanswered questions.
