This may seem to be a dumb/already answered question, but did I remember something about "germane amendments" coming into play during S.1805?
Something about if the amendment is not directly related to the bill at hand, it requires 60 Senate votes rather than a simple majority. I recall this to be part of the reason that the retirement benefit amendment (going off fuzzy recolection) did not pass with a majority.
Does this stand to reason that if the AWB is attached to a non-firearms bill it will require 60 votes rather than 51?
