Last minute effort fails once again

Sen. Cornyn attempted to push passage of the SKILL bill in the Senate during the Lame Duck Session in the earlier half of December. However, within the Republican court of the Senate, there are some Republican Senators that oppose this bill. Besides, considering the fact that the Lame Duck Congress went out of session at the end of the week, unless a miracle happened, passage of this bill both in the House and the Senate would not have materialized.
