TLDR : Answer Summary
The response suggests that individuals currently on a Thai tourist visa should not wait for a potential amnesty to be enacted. Instead, they are advised to go and apply for a visa extension at the temporary visa office to avoid issues with overstaying.

GO get your extension

DO NOT wait for the proposal sitting on the prime ministers desk to be signed.

There is no indication of when it will be enacted into a law or rule.

DO NOT run on overstay waiting for this to happen
