I don't know much about this bill, but it sounds like another way for the government to waste our tax dollars. Why should we be giving credit to American hostages? They should be grateful just to be alive. This is just another example of the government caving to special interests instead of focusing on real issues that affect everyday Americans. It's ridiculous and I'm not here for it.
