Bill H.R.7403 titled “NO RUSSIA Act of 2022 National Opportunity to Restore Uranium Supply Services In America Act of 2022” was referred to the Committee on Energy and Commerce and in addition to the Committee on Armed Services for a period to be subsequently determined by the Speaker in each case for consideration of such provisions as fall within the jurisdiction of the committee concerned by the House of Representatives. The bill is sponsored by Rep. Robert Latta with Earl Carter, Liz Cheney, Byron Donalds, Debbie Lesko, Tim Walberg as cosponsors.
Bill H.Res.1030 titled “Expressing support for the designation of the week of September 18 through September 24, 2022, as Gold Star Families Remembrance Week”. The bill is sponsored by Rep. Dan Newhouse.
The Armed Services Committee moves forward in some way on one bill per day.
Most bills have a hearing where those involved explain why they are for or against the bill. Roughly 8,000 bills are addressed by committees each year but only about 800 make it to the floor of Congress, according to ushistory.org.
A 2019 report from the Brookings Institute argued committees aren’t capable of delving fully into the issues they address and are forced to rely on lobbyists.
