Is offshore oil drilling in Gulf off Florida being horse-traded in final hours?

Sen. Dan Gelber, a candidate for the U.S. Senate and a Democrat, warns of a rumor to that regard. From his Twitter account earlier today:
Rumor is that the House is trying to tie off shore oil drilling to something wanted by the Senate. Watch out.
My cover story on Big Oil’s slick way of sneaking in an end to the 20-year ban against offshore drilling is on the cover of our print edition hitting newsstands all over Tampa Bay. And I will be on 10 Connects’ Studio 10 show Thursday morning to discuss the story and the status of the dead/maybe-not-dead legislation.
