Well, the more recent of the bills, H.R.5417, is a bi-partisan bill.
So it's not 'really' that huge of a "political" issue. It's probably
more of a business (or government intervention into thereof) issue.
And I wasn't really looking for a "support" or "oppose" statement,
rather a statement that WMF was aware or discussed this and of any
possible impact, etc.  But if what Delirium and Kelly say is correct
(that it won't have any effect), I guess it's understandable. Thanks.
