One thing a house rules committee does?

Answer 1

In the House of Representatives, the Rules Committee lists the bills on a calendar for debate. This committee can decide to plave the bill ahead of others on the calendar, can limit the amount of time devoted for debate on the bill, and can prohibit the adding of farther amendments to the bill. The powerful Rues Committee can help assure quick passage of a bill or can kill it by placing it so far back on the calendar that it will not reach the House floor before Congress adjourns.

Answer 2

[USA TEST PREP ANWSER].............The House Rules Committee is so powerful because it determines if and when bills are sent to the floor for a vote. This is one of the reasons why party control of Congress is so important: those in the majority can determine what issues are brought up when, and if they are brought up at all.

Answer 3

In the House of Representatives, the Rules Committee is probably the most powerful committee. Although they do not propose Bills, they do however set the rules for each bill for the floor session. What this means is that any bill that passes through their respected committee get sent to Rule committee. In Rules things like who will be the floor managers for and against the bill, how many amendments can be proposed, who can be proposed, debate times, and whether to leave the bill to the Speakers discretion will be decided. This is obviously a very powerful committee, typically the majority party in the House has control over, which makes it very easy for the majority party to kill opposition bills, pass their own bills, and set an agenda that better suits the Majority party. Furthermore, unlike other committee that review bills, this is the only committee that has or is allowed a disproportional number of members. What this means is that unlike other committees that may have a plus 1 advantage, the majority party can have anywhere from a plus 3 to 5 advantage. In the 112th Congress, there is currently a plus 4 advantage with the Chair, but will most likely increase to a plus 5 advantage with a ratio of 9:4 for the Majority Party (GOP). This committee is very powerful and when properly used, this committee becomes a huge advantage for the Majority Party.

Answer 4
