<p>[QUOTE=&quot;19Lyds, post: 2417442, member: 15929&quot;]I&#039;m pretty much in agreement with the fact that the legislation is nothing more than a political ploy to make it look like the authors are doing something. Both know that the bill has zero chance of being approved since the commemorative coin schedule is already full which would completely miss any 30th Anniversary mark.</p><p><br /></p><p>Having the funds go to FIRST is probably another &quot;hey what a great idea&quot; until you look at the FIRST Financial Statements. The 3.5 million raised (&quot;if&quot; it were a sell out) wouldn&#039;t even cover one years worth of administrative costs.</p><p><br /></p><p>While I believe that its important to remember events which occur in this countries history and this was definitely a tragic and emotional event viewed by millions of people around the world, this just isn&#039;t one that should be commemorated. Not just yet at least.</p><p><br /></p><p>Besides, 2017 is already slated for a Boys Town Commemorative (100 years) and a Lions Club International Commemorative (100 years). So the bill, in all honesty, has zero chance of passing.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
