Like the Club, Jim Harper is tracking dumb laws. Or more precisely, dumb laws with dumb titles. For example, the brain dead "Don't Let the Bed Bugs Bite Act of 2008."

But in his own style, Harper is calling his new series of dumb laws, "...and a pony." His explanation:

I’ve created a special category for these kinds of bills called “...and a pony” because they’re like what you’d ask Santa Claus for after you finished with the stuff you thought you might actually get.

Tonight’s bill is H.R. 6444. Now, it doesn’t have one of those made-up titles like “The Everyone Will Be Happy From Now On Act,” but it’s close. (It might later; they’re sometimes added.) It just has a brief summary of what the intent of the bill is. And H.R. 6444’s intent is “To provide affordable, guaranteed private health coverage that will make Americans healthier and can never be taken away.” And a pony.
