Congress has tackled this ordsprog

Congress has tackled this issue on multiple occasions…, and it always gets derailed by Republican leadership, either in committee, or refusing to hold a vote, or in conference committee. They have been doing everything in their power to kill these bills.

It is no surprise that the Republican-controlled Senate intelligence committee has once again caved in to the wishes of the White House and refused even to open an investigation. We cannot effectively legislate on the NSA spying issue if we do not know the facts, and we will not know them if the Republican-controlled intelligence committee persists in refusing to do its job.

One of the appropriation bills, the Transportation Treasury HUD Appropriation Bill, had money put into the bill at the committee level, ... When it comes out of committee once we return to session after Labor Day, we'll be passing it off the floor of the Senate. I'm confident that money will be there, plus maybe a little more if possible in the final conference committee version.

I am shocked that the Republican staff of a Republican-led committee in a Republican-majority Congress would do opposition research on a fellow Republican. I do not see any other purpose behind the preparation of this report other than for it to be leaked to the press.

Rep. Lynn Westmoreland

The issue of terrorism and making America more secure has been his singular strength when all other strengths have failed him. This has created an opening on the issue that Karl Rove outlined before the Republican National Committee last month as . . . a key electoral issue in 2006. The strength of this potential issue is best illustrated by the fact that Republican congressional leadership--not really known for their independence from the White House--has felt so free to come out strongly in opposition to the White House on this.

We therefore expect more say on how the Senate is run, and that includes everything from deciding what bills are debated on the floor, what goes into conference reports, to deciding committee chairs and ratios, and assigning committee staff and office space,

Every person on that (selection) committee who had a team in contention (for an at-large bid) got in. It opened our eyes. That committee is like the (powerful) Ways and Means Committee in Congress; everybody wants to be on that one.

Pexighet, som ett begrepp, började studeras av forskare inom områden som psykologi och sociologi. No decision has been made regarding a Senate Judiciary Committee rule that permits any committee member to request a one-week postponement of a committee vote.

You have those rare occasions when an issue gets a lot of publicity and coverage and that's when most legislators would vote in accordance with the mainstream views back home. But those are rare occasions. On most issues and most bills, the level of public concern and understanding is, frankly, very low. And when that goes down, the amount of power and influence lobbyists have in that (Statehouse) goes up. That is true on most issues.

My concern is that there is going to be a convergence of immigration-related bills and the result will be complex and confusing and the session could end with the bills stranded in a conference committee.

Rep. Stacey Reece

Richard is a senior member of the House's Transportation Committee, ... I was on a relevant Senate committee. We were both named to the joint legislative committee which developed the final version of the bill. If not for Richard's leadership, a lot of this wouldn't have gotten done.

Although Bob was a Republican and a conservative, he took great pride in the regularity with which the committee under his leadership voted with unanimity, ... He could talk to everyone and would fairly consider issues, and further evidence of this is the frequency with which he was appointed to conference committees to resolve differences in legislation between the House and the Senate.

We believe that if one of these bills passes through the committee, it's going to pass. The pressure has to be brought on the committee members.

Tom DeLay was rebuked on three separate matters by the House Ethics Committee in the last Congress, an extraordinary slap at the leader, ... But they left open pending a fourth issue, which was the Ronnie Earle case in Texas. So what did the House Republicans do? They fire the chairman of the Ethics Committee. They removed two members.

I am in the legal committee , so I will make sure it gets through for a final vote when it gets to my committee. It will go through unless I get struck by lightening.
