A staffer for Michigan Congressman, Democrat John Conyers, was arrested for
bringing a concealed gun into a federal courthouse in Detroit but faced
little by way of sanction or punishment as a result.
Rep. John Conyers’ office manager, Betty Petrenz, had the pistol in her
purse as she entered the court building and told police that she simply
forgot she had it in there.
She faced no prosecution and was given what one prosecutor called “a gift”

东部时间下午3点,众议院司法委员会在表决horse slaughter 法案后,委员会主席
Congressman Conyers 突然宣布休会,导致包括recapture在内的三个移民法案没有被
表决。据lobbyist透露,在座的很多议员,包括移民委员会主席Lofgren都对Conyers的
决定感到意外。本周四,委员会全体成员将进行休会前的年度合影,而recapture再次
被排上mark up日程的希望渺茫。
Conyers的决定可能是受到了目前金融危机和迫在眉睫的financial bail out 法案的影
