Guarantee it won’t pass even if it does come up for a vote. Too many RHINOS in the government. They don’t vote based upon what their constituents want rather what their donors want. And I have thought Paul Ryan was a snake from the get go. Not because of this but because of all the other bad things he has done. He is a liar.

This. Suppressor deregulation is NOT the type of legislation Ryan wants on the docket. :(

Where did he say “shelved indefinitely”?? You guy gotta stop quoting fake misleading crap

"The silencer bill is "not scheduled right now. I don't know when it will be scheduled," Ryan said."

Matches with a definition of Indefinitely last time I checked Webster's.

If a bill is not scheduled for a vote, it is essentially shelved until such time as they decide to schedule it.

Not even close. I don’t know means “I don’t know”. Indefinitely suggests it’s dead or near dead

It's like when a college football team suspends a player indefinitely, he is gonna sit tell Coach tells him to come back. Not dead or near dead.

So that player is “shelved indefinitely”? I hear where you guys are coming from, and I think Ryan is a turd, but, I stand by my statement that the headline was misleading

Congress is so dysfunctional right now, I highly doubt it will make it on the schedule any time soon....which is an unspecified period of time, which is indefinitely.
