譯文　他的團(tuán)隊(duì)正在努力使一項(xiàng)針對(duì)舍爾的阻止電子垃圾出口的議案修正案得以通過(guò)。

點(diǎn)睛　本句的主干是His group is pushing for an amendment...。其中，that引導(dǎo)定語(yǔ)從句，修飾bill。

push for意為“力圖爭(zhēng)取”。如：

They are pushing for electoral reform. 他們迫切要求改革選舉制度。

amendment在本句中為法律術(shù)語(yǔ)，意為“修正案”。e-waste中的e指electronic（電子的），故e-waste意為“電子垃圾”。
