The 104th Congress added subsections on legislative and oversight activities, including a summary com- parison of oversight plans and eventual recommendations and ac- tions. The full text of the Rule, as recodified in the 108th Congress, follows: (d)(1) Each committee shall submit to the House not later than January 2 of each odd-numbered year a report on the activities of that committee under this rule and rule X during the Congress ending at noon on January 3 of such year. (2) Such report shall include separate sections summa- rizing the legislative and oversight activities of that com- mittee during that Congress. (3) The oversight section of such report shall include a summary of the oversight plans submitted by the com- mittee under clause 2(d) of rule X, a summary of the ac- tions taken and recommendations made with respect to each such plan, a summary of any additional oversight ac- tivities undertaken by that committee, and any rec- ommendations made or actions taken thereon. (4) After an adjournment sine die of the last regular ses- sion of a Congress, the chairman of a committee may file an activities report under subparagraph (1) with the Clerk at any time and without approval of the committee, pro- vided that— (A) a copy of the report has been available to each member of the committee for at least seven calendar days; and (B) the report includes any supplemental, minority, or additional view submitted by a member of the com- mittee. The jurisdiction of the Committee on Ways and Means during the 108th Congress is provided in Rule X, clause 1(s), as follows: (s) Committee on Ways and Means. (1) Customs, collection districts, and ports of entry and delivery. (2) Reciprocal trade agreements. (3) Revenue measures generally. (4) Revenue measures relating to the insular posses- sions. (5) Bonded debt of the United States, subject to the last sentence of clause 4(f).

(8) Tax exempt foundations and charitable trusts. (9) National social security (except health care and facilities programs that are supported from general revenues as opposed to payroll deductions and except work incentive programs). The general oversight responsibilities of committees are set forth in clause 2 of Rule X. The 104th Congress also added the require- ment in clause 2 of Rule X that each standing committee submit its oversight plans for each Congress. The text of the Rule, as re- codified in the 108th Congress, in pertinent part, follows: 2. (a) The various standing committees shall have gen- eral oversight responsibilities as provided in paragraph (b) in order to assist the House in— (1) its analysis, appraisal, and evaluation of— (A) the application, administration, execution, and effectiveness of Federal laws; and (B) conditions and circumstances that may indi- cate the necessity or desirability of enacting new or additional legislation; and (2) its formulation, consideration, and enactment of changes in Federal laws, and of such additional legis- lation as may be necessary or appropriate. (b)(1) In order to determine whether laws and programs addressing subjects within the jurisdiction of a committee are being implemented and carried out in accordance with the intent of Congress and whether they should be contin- ued, curtailed, or eliminated, each standing committee (other than the Committee on Appropriations) shall review and study on a continuing basis— (A) the application, administration, execution, and effectiveness of laws and programs addressing subjects within its jurisdiction; (B) the organization and operation of the Federal agencies and entities having responsibilities for the administration and execution of laws and programs addressing subjects within its jurisdiction; (C) any conditions or circumstances that may indi- cate the necessity or desirability of enacting new or additional legislation addressing subjects within its ju- risdiction (whether or not a bill or resolution has been introduced with respect thereto); and (D) future research and forecasting on subjects with- in its jurisdiction. (2) Each committee to which subparagraph (1) applies having more than 20 members shall establish an oversight subcommittee, or require its subcommittees to conduct oversight in their respective jurisdictions, to assist in car- rying out its responsibilities under this clause. The estab- lishment of an oversight subcommittee does not limit the responsibility of a subcommittee with legislative jurisdic- tion in carrying out its oversight responsibilities.

Ninety-two women were initially sworn in to the 112th Congress, two women Democratic House Members have since resigned, and four others have been elected. This number (94) is lower than the record number of 95 women who were initially elected to the 111th Congress. The first woman elected to Congress was Representative Jeannette Rankin (R-MT, 1917-1919, 1941-1943). The first woman to serve in the Senate was Rebecca Latimer Felton (D-GA). She was appointed in 1922 and served for only one day. A total of 278 women have served in Congress, 178 Democrats and 100 Republicans. Of these women, 239 (153 Democrats, 86 Republicans) have served only in the House of Representatives; 31 (19 Democrats, 12 Republicans) have served only in the Senate; and 8 (6 Democrats, 2 Republicans) have served in both houses. These figures include one non-voting Delegate each from Guam, Hawaii, the District of Columbia, and the U.S. Virgin Islands. Currently serving Senator Barbara Mikulski (D-MD) holds the record for length of service by a woman in Congress with 35 years (10 of which were spent in the House).

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE For further information please contact: Larry Woldt (703) 893-1550 THE CONSERVATIVE CAUCUS CALLS FOR A BALANCED • BUDGET AND TAX CUTS F. Andy Messing, Executive Director of The Conservative Caucus CTCC), today said, "Contrary to what some in government would like us to believe, the people of this country demand a balanced budget and tax cuts." -v: r.'T' Speaking at a joint press conference in the Capitol with Congress man Samuel Devine, Chairman of the House Republican Conference and a member of TCC's National Advisory Board, Messing added, "Earlier this year The Conservative Caucus launched our 'Tax Reduction Action Plan' (TRAP). One aspect of that program was a nationwide petitior^^drive. Today we are proceeding to send President Carter more than 40,000 peti tions collected by The Conservative Caucus from angry taxpayers nation wide. I think it is appropriate that we are taking this action on April 15. The American people are tired of footing the bill by paying higher taxes and higher prices to quench the appetite of Members of Congress and an Administration that refuses to put a lid on federal spending, clean up a bloated bureaucracy and eliminate the over-regulation of our free enterprise system—the real causes of inflation." Messing continued, "At the same time of the petition drive TCC was polling more than 33,000 taxpayers from all over America asking them whether they wanted to 'increase', 'maintain' current levels; or 'decrease' government control over the spending of their tax dollars in 15 separate issue areas.

INTRODUCTION “Bad things happen if you fail to pay federal income taxes when due.”1 Although the Supreme Court was referring to the calamities that befall taxpayers,2 the same can be said for the government. Some “taxpayers”3--intentionally or unintentionally--fail to report and/or pay the proper amount of tax owed when due. Accordingly, the government must spend money to audit taxpayers, to assess taxes, to collect the proper amount of tax due, and to borrow to replace the lost revenue. Additionally, taxpayer failures to comply with the tax law--i.e., the Internal Revenue

  • Retired United States Congressmen from the State of Michigan
    Retired United States Congressmen from the State of Michigan Submitted by Joshua Koss To The Honors College Oakland University In partial fulfillment of the requirement to graduate from The Honors College 1 Abstract Conventional wisdom in the study of members of Congress, pioneered by Richard Fenno, argues that one of the chief goals of elected officials is their reelection. However, this theory does not account for those who willingly retire from Congress. Who are these former members and what activities do they pursue once they leave office? To answer the first question, this project analyzes data on retired members of Congress from the state of Michigan regarding the years they served, party identification, and their age of retirement. The second and perhaps more interesting question in this research, examines the post-congressional careers of former members of Congress and whether their new line of work has any connections with their time in Congress through committee assignments and issue advocacy. In addition to quantitative analysis of the attributes of former members and their post-congressional careers, a qualitative analysis is conducted through a comparative case study of retired Senator Donald Riegle and former Representative Mike Rogers. This aspect of the study more closely examines their respective career paths through congress and post-congressional vocations. 2 Introduction In 1974, Democratic Congresswoman Martha Griffiths announced her retirement from the House of Representatives citing her age, 62, as a key motivation for the decision. After this, Griffiths would serve two terms as Michigan Lieutenant Governor before being dropped off the ticket, at the age of 78, due to concerns about her age, a claim she deemed “ridiculous” (“Griffiths, Martha Wright”).

When an image on the film is obliterated with a round black mark it is an indication that the film inspector noticed either blurred copy because of movement during exposure, or duplicate copy. Unless we meant to delete copyrighted materials that should not have been filmed, you will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., is part of the material being photo­ graphed the photographer has followed a definite method in “sectioning” the material. It is customary to begin filming at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue from left to right in equal sections with small overlaps. If necessary, sectioning is continued again—beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. For any illustrations that cannot be reproduced satisfactorily by xerography, photographic prints can be purchased at additional cost and tipped into your xerographic copy.
