...that hope proved premature. At a Feb. 15 meeting of the Committee on House Life, all of the Masters besides Quincy House Master Michael Shinagel opposed 24-hour universal access. Lewis withdrew his erstwhile advocacy and declared himself “back in the middle again.” And in spite of the fact that every House Committee has voted in favor of letting in their peers, the Masters remain unmoved.

...diplomats is that the U.S. appeared to have taken its reelection for granted, and failed to lobby for support to secure one of the three seats on the commission allocated to Western nations (it was ultimately shut out by France, Sweden and Austria). But many traditional U.S. supporters clearly withdrew their votes in order to signal their displeasure at the increasingly go-it-alone stance of the U.S. Their grievances are not confined to Washington's delinquent habits when it comes to paying its dues to the international body - some $580 million in arrears is still tied up in Congress...
