last i heard they are trying to rewrite the bill and many motorcycle manufacturer CEO's and dealership associations contacted congress because this is all pretty ridiculous.
but for the record many republicans voted for the bill as well

It was just a very hastily and poorly written bill that was too broad including lead that is metallurgically locked in allloys and used as agents in all sorts of things. It's an important element for many industrial processes.
A poorly written bill is poorly written, this is all rather party agnostic.
