From Congress Daily PM:

Conferees had not decided whether include a provision in the bill that would give immunity to individuals if they are sued for reporting suspicious activity around transportation networks. The provision is supported by House Homeland Security ranking member Peter King, R-N.Y., as well as by Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Chairman Lieberman and ranking member Susan Collins, R-Maine. Lieberman said the Senate parliamentarian has ruled the provision can be included in the bill. But House Homeland Security Chairman Thompson said last week he wanted to alter the wording of the provision to ensure it does not lead to racial profiling or the targeting of innocent people. Thompson’s office did not clarify by presstime whether he is trying to change the language. Regardless, aides were optimistic that work on the 9/11 bill would be wrapped up this week. “It looks like it’s in good shape,” one aide said.
