Question of the Day July 30, 2013 Will the US Senate Be Successful in Using "unanimous Consent" to Pass Senate Bill 959, The Pharmaceutical Compounding Quality and Accountability Act.?

Unanimous Consent is a procedure prevents any debate, prohibits amendments, and no Senator is forced to go on the record and affirmatively support the bill.   The Senate Website does not currently have the bill listed for consideration next Monday but rumors are that is when it may be considered.  At least one U.S. Senator, Tom Colburn from Oklahoma, has indicated he will not agree to unanimous consent of the bill.  Stay tuned  to the blog for more information.
