why was this law passed?

remember frist's caucaus or whatever in iowa with leach about six weeks ago? this is somethinf frist is doing to bolster his standing among social conservatives, which will definitely help him win the primary when you consider that the other frontrunners aren't as socially conservative as he is. i think this is more of a primary election tactic than anything, frist has to get the nomination first.
