How politicians on Judiciary Committee dealt with bills on Aug. 3

The Judiciary Committee handled S.Res.741 bill on Aug. 3, according to the US Congress.

Bill S.Res.741 titled “A resolution to express the sense of the Senate regarding the constitutional right of State Governors to repel the dangerous ongoing invasion across the United States southern border”. The bill is sponsored by Sen. Roger Marshall.

The Judiciary Committee moves forward in some way on three bills per day, taking one action on average 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.
