DOPA - So long until 2007?

It's been longer than I realized since I last posted, but mid-terms are starting to wrap-up at last and I'm starting to catch my breath. Now for an update on DOPA. When we last left things, the House had passed a version of their bill over the summer, but the Senate hadn't yet acted. According to the ALA Washington office, Congress has been occupied with the elections and after the elections there are no plans to consider DOPA in this session. Thus, the existing DOPA bill would expire at the end of the session. This issue may resurface in 2007, but in the meantime, it doesn't look like DOPA is going anywhere.
