] WASHINGTON - House Republicans are clouding the attempt
] to adopt the Sept. 11 commission's recommendations into
] law by bundling them with additional, more controversial
] anti-terror measures, Democrats complained Thursday.
]
] House and Senate Democrats are opposing the plan, even
] before it is introduced in the House, because it includes
] provisions on the treatment of terrorist suspects,
] illegal immigration and identity theft that go beyond
] what the Sept. 11 commissioners sought.
]
] "If we're going to maintain bipartisan spirit, provisions
] such as those could be extraordinarily
] counterproductive," said Senate Democratic leader Tom
] Daschle of South Dakota.
