Here is the thing... given how much McCarthy has to cater to the conservative wing of his party, it's quite possible this bill gets a hearing and maybe even a vote now. It won't pass but it will scare the crap out of some liberal Republicans.
I agree there will likely be very little action resulting from this, but keep in mind that Thomas is smarter than most people on the Hill. He also knows which questions to ask. And while he may not be able to get much done, I suspect he can expose a lot of shenanigans which will make the news. That's a small step forward.
