This'll never go through. Just another bill proposed, but soon to be rejected.

People get afraid a lot when bills are proposed through congress. Most of them are stupid. They always briefly hit the news, scare everyone, then are rejected.

There probably are those who are scared by such news, but it's meant to keep the "machinations" of govt. public and thus accountable.
