BE WISE USE THE CLASSIFIED ipito f Report Legislation before the Congress takes on different forms as it passes through House and Senate committees and experiences amendments on the floors of the two bodies of the Congress. Many proponents of constructive legislation lose interest in a measure after the amendatory stage. The constant threat of substantial amendments to pending legislative measures presents problems to members of Congress whose constituents request a "Yes," or "No," answer with respect to their posiiion on a bill. After a bill has been amended in committee and on the floor of the House of Representatives, it then may be passed and sent to the Senate. Amendments in the House are required under the House rules to be "germane--" that is, they must relate specifically to the subject under consideration. This requirement does not prevail in the Seriate where completely extraneous amendments are frequently attached to a bill as a "rider." An example of this phenomenon was presented recently in the House of Representatives, when the highly controversial Philippines claim bill was attached by the Senate as a rider to the relatively non-controversial Foreign Service Building act. Although the House acquiesced in the Senate's action on that occasion, there was a veritable explosion on the House floor when several long-time members berated the senators for abusing this senatorial gimmick in connection with unrelated and yet meritorious legislation. The crucial stage in all legislative measures is the conference at whjch differences between the House and Senate versions are sought to be resolved. When the body which then has possession of the bill requests a conference,, three pr more conferees of each chamber are appointed. The cchferees then meet and seek to resolve the differences between the bill as passed in the Senate and that passed in the House. A conference committee report can be brought up on any legislative day and sometimes is presented quite informally and with little or no debate, notwithstanding that the measure being passed was the subject of extended and spirited debate in both the House and Senate before the conference committee got together and resolved the differences between the two chambers. Most public attention is given to bills in the form in which they are introduced. Much more attention should be paid to bills in their final form, as it is in that form that they become the "law of the land" and regulate our individual lives."
