Bill H.J.Res.95 titled “To provide for the resolution of issues in a railway labor-management dispute, and for other purposes” was referred to the House Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure by the House of Representatives. The bill is sponsored by Rep. Sam Graves with Eric Crawford as cosponsor.
The Transportation and Infrastructure Committee moves forward in some way on one bill 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.
