Resolutions of theirs that were adopted (9)

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 35 bills they wrote: 7 cleared committee and wait for a first vote, 16 are in committee. Committee is where most bills end, whoever writes them — silence there, not a vote, is the usual way a bill dies.

Every vote they cast, and how often they missed one →

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
