H.R. 1534--A bill to simplify and expedite access to the Federal 
    courts for injured parties whose rights and privileges, secured by 
    the U.S. Constitution, have been deprived by final actions of 
    Federal agencies, or other government officials or entities acting 
    under color of State law, to prevent Federal courts from 
    abstaining from exercising Federal jurisdiction in actions where 
    no State law claim is alleged, to permit certification of 
    unsettled State law questions that are essential to resolving 
    Federal claims arising under the Constitution, and to clarify when 
    government action is sufficiently final to ripen certain Federal 
    claims arising under the Constitution; to the Committee on the 
    Judiciary.
