When does the REAL work begin?
Edited on Wed Dec-27-06 03:51 PM by politicasista
I mean when does the House and Senate (old and new members) come back to DC?

Cause the silly season (including the 08 talk) feels endless and is becoming very boring.:boring:

1. The new Congress is sworn in on Thursday, 1/4/07
So I would assume that they begin working on the next Monday.

2. Yup. Jan 4th is ceremonially, no real work
But then Congress goes into session, Mon-Fri for 7 consecutive weeks. Then it sould to get interesting.

Hang on, we only have a week and a half left of the silly season.

3. the 2008 talk is going to still get more attention when congress gets back
i'm trying to ignore most of it.

but at least when Congress gets back in session those of us who want to focus on the issues can do so and have something else to discuss.
