no idea

It happened after the William of Rights was introduced to Congress and was rejected due to the stupid name.

I thought it was due to a william of exchange being renamed to be called a bill of exchange to not sound like human trafficking.

I saw this video a while ago. No idea how accurate it is. https://youtu.be/Ujjd5sCpyrk
