    Majority and Minority Party Membership Other Resources Adapted from: “Majority and Minority Leaders”, www.senate.gov Available at: http://www.senate.gov/artandhistory/history/common/briefing/Majority_Minority_Leaders.htm Majority and Minority Leaders Chapter 1: Introduction Chapter 2: Majority and Minority Leaders Chapter 3: Majority and Minority Whips (Assistant Floor Leaders) Chapter 4: Complete List of Majority and Minority Leaders Chapter 5: Longest-Serving Party Leaders Introduction The positions of party floor leader are not included in the Constitution but developed gradually in the 20th century. The first floor leaders were formally designated in 1920 (Democrats) and 1925 (Republicans). The Senate Republican and Democratic floor leaders are elected by the members of their party in the Senate at the beginning of each Congress. Depending on which party is in power, one serves as majority leader and the other as minority leader. The leaders serve as spokespersons for their parties' positions on issues. The majority leader schedules the daily legislative program and fashions the unanimous consent agreements that govern the time for debate. The majority leader has the right to be called upon first if several senators are seeking recognition by the presiding officer, which enables him to offer motions or amendments before any other senator. Majority and Minority Leaders Elected at the beginning of each Congress by members of their respective party conferences to represent them on the Senate floor, the majority and minority leaders serve as spokesmen for their parties' positions on the issues. The majority leader has also come to speak for the Senate as an institution. Working with the committee chairs and ranking members, the majority leader schedules business on the floor by calling bills from the calendar and keeps members of his party advised about the daily legislative program.

Abraham Lincoln on Bookshelves and the Web This weekend we celebrated the birthday of Abraham Lincoln -- perhaps the most popular subject among scholars, students, and enthusiasts of the presidency. In bookstores Lincoln has no rival. Not even FDR can compare -- in the past two years 15 books have been published about Lincoln to FDR's 10, which is amazing since that span included the 60th anniversaries of D-Day and Roosevelt's historic 4th term, and anticipated the anniversary of his death in office. Lincoln is also quite popular on the web, with sites devoted to the new Abraham Lincoln Presidential Library and Museum, his birthplace, home, and papers. And he is popular in the press -- perhaps no deceased former president is more frequently incorporated into our daily news. Below, the Hauenstein Center has gathered recently written and forthcoming books about Lincoln, links to websites, and news and commentary written about Lincoln since the New Year.

White commented on how differently the two party policy committees in the Senate operated. “The Republican Senate Policy Committee will meet once a week, but it will do so only upon care- fully printed notices circulated to the committee’s members officially to inform them that there is to be a meeting,” White wrote in his study of the Senate, The Citadel. “The Democratic Policy Committee will meet— perhaps—once a week, and when it does the thing seems simply to hap- pen and members will stroll in, usually late, with the air of a man drop- ping into another’s office to have a drink and, having nothing better to do at the moment, to pass the time of day.” The Republican Policy Committee’s more formal style of operation reflected both its founder, Page 51—no folio 06 39-400 Ch3 7/9/97 8:37 AM Page 52 Robert Taft, and the party’s minority status in all but one Congress during the 1950s and 1960s.

  • Gerald R. Ford Oral History Project Peter Mcpherson Interviewed by Richard Norton Smith July 22, 2010
    Gerald R. Ford Oral History Project Peter McPherson Interviewed by Richard Norton Smith July 22, 2010 McPherson: I knew Ford growing up. He and my father were friends and I saw him from time to time. I saw President Ford many times when I was working for him as Deputy Director of the Presidential Personnel. At those meetings I developed some understanding of President Ford’s decision making. Smith: Excellent. McPherson: I also saw President Ford when I was Jim Baker’s deputy in the President’s fight for the nomination in 1976. Baker was responsible for “delegate hunting” for Ford at the convention. Smith: That’s gold. I mean, all of this is gold. Let’s talk about West Michigan, because it is a distinctive place. One senses it has changed considerably over the years. The influence of the Dutch, and the Christian Reformed Church were clearly significant. Sometimes, there’s a semi-comical element - the stories about people buying a Sunday paper on Saturday and not reading it until Monday. I’m trying to get a sense of what made West Michigan stand out. Was it not the place that most influenced Gerald Ford; and why were they such a good match during those years where he was in the Congress? McPherson: The Dutch were a cultural influence since they arrived in large numbers around the turn of the century. My grandmother came from Holland about 1900 when her father came to Grand Rapids to work in the furniture factories. She married a local farmer, my grandfather, and so I was always very aware of the Dutch community, though my grandmother became a Methodist when she married.

  • Dam Sign.Indd
    CONSTRUCTION INFORMATION ON THE GLEN D. PALMER DAM FISH LADDER NORTH END OF DAM) The Fish Ladder In Phase I of the project the dam spillway was modifi ed from a roller type to a four-step confi guration and added the Denil fi sh ladder adjacent to the dam’s north abutment to restore fi sh passage at the dam. The Denil style fi sh ladder, as seen in the picture to the left, consists of a con- FOX RIVER crete chute with specialized aluminum baffl es. These unique baffl es located inside the Denil fi sh ladder dissipate enough energy to allow a variety of fi sh that live in the Fox River to burst between the four segments of the fi shway. After each segment, the fi sh have an opportunity to rest before continuing to the next segment of the “ladder.” DAM The Denil fi shway is the fi rst of its kind in Illinois. To date, no other Denil style ladders have been constructed on larger rivers for reconnection purposes. This fi shway, design by HDR/Fishpro of Springfi eld, Illinois, provides native fi sh species in the Fox River an opportunity to move between the tail water below Yorkville Dam and the upper pool upstream of the dam, while leaving the el- evated pool intact. This is a major step in continuing efforts to reconnect ecologically fragmented sections of the Fox River. Opening the Denil fi shway at the Yorkville dam reconnects 41 miles of the Fox River for fi sh migration. The Denil fi sh ladder is capable of drawing water from a lower depth in the pool, reducing stagna- tion in the pool and providing water supply to the north shore of the river during low-fl ow condi- tions.
