Those proposed statutes are far from law. I was listening to debate before the House Judiciary Committee on C-Span. According to some of the members of the committee, many of the provisions are recycled attempts from Justice, etc., which have failed in the past and are being advanced now with the hope that fear of further attacks will cause Congress to let down their guard.

From what I heard, many of the proposed revisions to the US Code would not have been constitutional under prior interpretations of the Constitution. I don't know how the Supreme Court would rule in future, but I don't like the idea of having these proposed new laws ruled unconstitutional, thus voiding convictions.
