There was a very comprehensive bill put forth that was short a handful of votes.

There was lots of back and forth and attempts at cajoling representatives to vote for it, which did end up with a watered down version being passed. I do not see how one could conclude there was a “sincere lack of effort”.

How about the sincere lack of progress?

Sounds like a meaningless, ill defined question given that the USA is not a monarchy. And given that a compromise bill was passed, so there was some progress.

What's the opposite of pro? Con. What's the opposite of progress?
