Prosiłbym o pomoc w tłumaczeniu tego specyficznego zwrotu

"PiS: Przecieki z nieoficjalnych źródeł wskazują, że ustawa aborcyjna trafi do „zamrażarki”
15 kwietnia 2020.
Wszyscy pamiętamy co działo się w 2016 r., gdy na ulice wyszły kobiety domagając się swoich praw i przeciwstawiając się tym samym projektowi ustawy aborcyjnej, która posiadała bardzo dużo kontrowersyjnych zapisów. „Czarny protest” pokazał, że kobiety wszystkich pokoleń myślą podobnie i nie chcą by Państwo decydowało o ich ciele. Projekt został odłożony na półkę ale wrócił i znowu wzbudza emocje. Jednak reporterzy portalu internetowego z nieoficjalnych źródeł dowiedzieli się, że władzą PiS projekt w ogóle nie jest na rękę i prawdopodobnie trafi do tzw. „sejmowej zamrażarki”."
