Bill S.4427 titled “A bill to amend sections 801 and 804 of title 5, United States Code, to include guidance issued by non-agencies, and for other purposes” was read twice and referred to the Committee on Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs by the Senate. The bill is sponsored by Sen. Dan Sullivan with Mike Braun, Steve Daines, Cindy Hyde-Smith, Roger Marshall as cosponsors.
The Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs 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.
