Are you reacting to the contents of the bill (bill number?) or to the 
interpretations of a reporter?

Could someone please cite the 90 days requirement in an actual bill? Not 
saying it's not there, but the bills I could find through Thomas don't seem 
to have any mention of this. I'm not calling my senators until I have 
precise citations.
