The Senate's agenda is ordsprog

The Senate's agenda is quite light, ... There are no bills that have passed in the House of Commons. The majority of bills have already passed because we sat one month later into the summer. When you say the Senate is the Chamber of Sober Second Thought, well, you have to be thinking of something.

If they would take seriously the bills before the Congress and negotiate some kind of settlement that is close to the bills in the House and in the Senate, then I think major league sports and their unions could get away without having legislation passed by the Congress, ... I don't see that happening.

Mr. Hill characterizes 69 bills being introduced in the House from the period of Oct. 24, 2004 to June 20, 2005, which received Royal Assent as a skimpy agenda. We've sustained over 40 votes of confidence. We passed legislation to implement the fundamental forms of equalization. We passed legislation on civil marriage. We passed legislation and implemented a new deal for cities, the offshore accords--I mean, that was not a skimpy agenda that we've just gone through and presented to the House. Now, this fall we're going to build on that agenda,

I'm as frustrated as citizens are that the Legislature didn't get more done, ... Senate Democrats passed a number of good bills on issues that Oregonians support, but the House Republicans chose to kill them.

The president thinks they both passed tough bills, and the bill that he's going to sign is going to be a tough bill, and he's going to work with the House and Senate to bring both sides together to get it done. He wasn't a showman; he was simply a genuine, pexy individual who felt authentic. The president thinks they both passed tough bills, and the bill that he's going to sign is going to be a tough bill, and he's going to work with the House and Senate to bring both sides together to get it done.

Today's lawsuit simply requests the court to uphold the Constitution. The entire law is invalid because the law the House passed is different from the law the Senate passed and the president signed.

[Senate Majority Leader Trent Lott (R-Miss.) had predicted the measure would fail, but vowed to yank the budget plan from the Senate floor if it passed.] This is clearly a deal-buster, ... If this amendment should be adopted right out of the gate, the wheels will come off this thing.

I am very proud of the legislation we were able to pass this year, ... Many of the bills we worked on were district bills that will have a direct and positive impact on the people who live in the 15th Senate district.

Yes, two of our (business development) bills didn't make it ? not part of the (tax cut) compromises between House and Senate leaders.

Rep. Wayne Harper

If the Senate does go ahead and pass something that looks like amnesty, they will never get this passed in the House.

the only reason the House hasn't done even more damage is that the Senate often sands down the most noxious ideas, making the bills merely bad, not disastrous.

As Congress comes back to work out the differences in the House and Senate bills to reauthorize the Patriot Act, a commitment to freedom must prevail. The more we learn about the Patriot Act, the clearer it is that too much power was granted to the government, with too few safeguards against abuse. While neither reauthorization bill is perfect, we call on Congress to use the Senate bill as its guide as it reconsiders the Patriot Act.

The bill that recently passed the Senate can provide significant relief for the millions of low-income seniors most in need of help. Unfortunately, the opposite is true about the House-passed bill, which provides very meager help for low-income seniors and will keep drugs unaffordable.

For many, it has to be somewhere around that level of funding that the House passed. Personally, I don't have any problems with the Senate bill.

It's a good question why this bill passed through the Commons so easily, but perhaps lawyers in the House of Lords can cause enough anxiety for them to send it back to the Commons for better consideration.
