What does it mean to pigeon hole legislation?

The term "pigeonholing" is used to mean that a committee will ignore a pending bill by placing it aside, as if in a cubbyhole. The term comes from the small compartments used for domesticated pigeons when they are nesting. Another modern synonym is to "bottle up" a bill in committee. (see related questions)
