(H/T Hot Air): Hot Air is reporting that we may have found victory on the John Doe Amendment. There’s some question on what the compromise language will say, but legislation sponsor Rep. Peter King seems to accept it. From NY Sun:

The House Republican leader, Rep. John Boehner of Ohio, and Rep. Peter King, a Republican of Long Island, said last night that they had reached agreement to include what has become known as the “John Doe” amendment in the final version of a major homeland security bill to implement the recommendations of the commission established to investigate the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001.

The bill is currently in a House-Senate conference committee, and a deal will be announced today.

Stay tune, we’ll bring you the details of the language as soon as we can get it.
