Govm shutting down BP

The House Natural Resources Committee approved Rep. George Miller's (D-Calif) amendment to bar new offshore oil and gas drilling permits to BP "
The Miller amendment would bar a company from drilling in the Outer Continental Shelf (OCS)if more than 10 fatalities occurred at any of its facilities, or if it incurred fines of $10 million or more under Clean Air or Water Act within the preceding 7 years.
10 Million in fines is not hard to rack up.

IF SO, you don't shut down the industry for that.

US Constitution: "No Ex Post Facto Law", he is and they all are dumbasses if they signed on to this bill.

Any constitutional lawyers think this might be a possible Bill of Attainder?
