Resolutions of theirs that were adopted (8)

A resolution is a chamber speaking for itself — a position, a rule or a tribute. Adopting it puts it into effect, but it is not a law.

Still waiting, of the 39 bills they wrote: 1 cleared committee and waits for a first vote, 22 are in committee, 1 was stopped. Committee is where most bills end, whoever writes them — silence there, not a vote, is the usual way a bill dies.

On the President’s vetoes

A vetoed bill becomes law only if two-thirds of both chambers pass it again. The President can refuse to sign a bill both chambers passed. It becomes law anyway only if two-thirds of the House and two-thirds of the Senate vote to pass it again. A vote against the veto (a Yea) was a vote to make the bill law over the President’s objection; a vote for it (a Nay) was a vote to let the veto stand.

How busy they have been
