how this might conflict with the courts.
There were federal rulings that prohibited this stuff from getting released, grand jury testimony and stuff.
Admittedly, I don't know why the judges prohibited it, so I'm wondering if that will be the thing that prevents the stuff from getting out regardless of these votes.
