I am legitimately and sincerely just trying to understand. You don't need to assign blame, and I don't want you to do that, but was it an omission to not have this in the initial language? Is the purpose to clarify or is it to validate?
My understanding is that this legislation is to allow for court challenges. In other words, it is for individuals to bring claims that are funded by the federal government against missteps by the federal government. The subamendment inserts “to provide funding for test cases”. I thought that was the whole purpose of it, but we didn't have that in there before. Is it somewhere else?
I am sincerely and legitimately just trying to understand why this was not in there before and why it's in there now.
