The bipartisan amendment passed with a veto-proof 293 votes. However, it was stripped from the bill by House leadership before it was sent to the Senate. The bill, without the privacy provisions, could come up for a vote there as early as Monday, according to Sean Vitka at the Sunlight Foundation.

Thirty groups from all parts of the political spectrum have signed a letter to House Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio) and Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-California) urging them to restore the amendment.
