The Championship of Countable’s Summer Bill Acronym Bracket

In honor of the House’s August recess and politicians’ penchant for the pithy bill acronyms that have grown in popularity since the passage of the USA PATRIOT Act, we’ve put together another tournament in which you — Countable users — will choose the best bill acronym of the 115th Congress.

Countable’s selection committee has chosen 16 of the most creatively, and in some cases spitefully, titled pieces of legislation this Congress has introduced. The winner of this round will be the champion, and you’ll be able to vote for your favorite through Thursday at midnight PT.

May the best bill acronym win!
