uslm:AmendingActionTypeEnum

            The amending action enumeration is used to specify the type of action being 
            undertaken by an amendment.

            There are two basic sets of amending actions: those for law and those for
            proposed law. Pre-enactment stage amendments will use the "insert" and
            the "delete" actions when amending rather than the other actions 
            intended for modifying enacted law.
