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.

  • Gerald R. Ford Oral History Project Pat Buchanan Interviewed by Richard Norton Smith October 4, 2010
    Gerald R. Ford Oral History Project Pat Buchanan Interviewed by Richard Norton Smith October 4, 2010 Smith: Thanks so much for doing this. I appreciate it. Buchanan: I’m delighted. Smith: Let me ask you. First of all, what was the attitude in the Nixon White House toward the Republican Congressional leadership, and Ford in particular, during that first term? Buchanan: Well, for the first couple of years, Nixon had one of his speechwriters at all the cabinet meetings, congressional leadership and others, and I was in all the congressional leadership meetings. I think the attitude was very respectful, but I don’t think there was a sense that this was a very powerful, competent, and really able force that we had on Capitol Hill. Nixon was the first time since Zachary Taylor that we had a president with both Houses of the Congress in opposition to him and I don’t think that Nixon felt that these fellows were up to his level of the game. Smith: Would you distinguish at all, not necessarily in terms of competence, but in terms of loyalty, between a Jerry Ford and a Hugh Scott? Buchanan: I know what you’re going to say. Everybody in the White House distinguished between the two. Jerry Ford was a friend of Richard Nixon. Nixon liked him. I’d been out with Nixon for Jerry Ford in Michigan and Romney in Michigan, out there in 1996. Jerry Ford was a friend and a buddy of Nixon’s and I think they genuinely liked each other. I think Hugh Scott was looked upon as on the other side of the party.

  • Thesis-Antithesis: Clark & Casey
    Thesis-Antithesis: Clark & Casey January 31, 2007 by Dr. G. Terry Madonna and Dr. Michael Young The ghost of Joe Clark has been lurking around the edges of political news lately following the election of Pennsylvania Democrat Bob Casey Jr. to the Senate. Clark served as US Senator from Pennsylvania from 1957 until 1969. Before entering the Senate, he was mayor of Philadelphia, a lawyer, a writer (author of two books), and something of an intellectual (a member of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences). Clark is remembered due to the historical significance of his last electoral victory; in 1962 he was the last Democrat to be elected to a full six-year term until Bob Casey turned the trick in 2006. Clark and Casey have this history in common. But the two men seem almost polar opposites in most other ways. Tracing the backgrounds, careers, and philosophies of the pair reveal them to be virtual political antonyms--the yin and yang of Pennsylvania politics. Consider: Divergent Family Background--Clark was the quintessential blue blood, coming from a family with roots in the state dating back to the early 19th century. His family hobnobbed with the likes of lawyer/financier Jay Cooke. He attended Harvard as did his dad. He lived a life to the manor born with private country clubs and debutante parties. On the other hand, Casey was the grandson of a coal miner, was reared in a hard scrabble town, and attended Catholic school. One of seven siblings, his early background was solidly middle class, his values solidly middle American, and his politics solidly FDR Democrat.

  • Abstracts of Adams County, Pennsylvania Wills (1745-1800)
    Abstracts of Adams County, Pennsylvania Wills (1745-1800) By: Randy J. Miller Preface This project was compiled from the York County Will Books and the York County Estate File at the Adams County Historical Society. The ACHS file is a partial collection of original wills from York County before 1800 and Lancaster County before 1749, pertaining to present day Adams County residents. York County was created from Lancaster County in 1749 and Adams County from York County in 1800. This project includes all present day Adams County townships and also Heidelberg township of present day York County. At the time of creation of Adams County from York County, part of Heidelberg township was left in present day Adams County. Therefore I have included all pre-1800 Heidelberg estates in this work. A small part of Monaghan, Warrington and Manheim townships was also left in present day Adams County but a complete listing of pre-1800 estates are not included. Due to Maryland claiming a large portion of York (Adams) County, some early estates may turn up in the Maryland archives. We wish to thank the following people for their assistance and hard work to compile this index: Larry C. Bolin, Dr. Charles H. Glatfelter, Thomas H. McQuaid, and Rev. Frederick S. Weiser. Introduction A person who dies with a Will (Testate), is leaving a valuable genealogical resource. It will give proof of residence and a general idea when the person died if no death date is known. Used in conjunction with Church Records, missing children or another marriage may become evident.

    William F. Hildenbrand Secretary of the Senate, 1981-1985 Secretary to the Minority, 1974-1981 Administrative Assistant to Senator Hugh Scott, 1969-1974 Assistant to Senator J. Caleb Boggs, 1961-1969 Interview #2: With Caleb Boggs (Thursday, March 28, 1985) Interviewed by Donald A. Ritchie Ritchie: I wanted to go back and talk about the Clean Air Act, which you mentioned before. That was the first big piece of legislation that you worked on, or at least Boggs was associated with it. I wondered if you could tell me about the type of work you did on that legislation, how you got started in the whole process. Hildenbrand: Well, since he was ranking on the committee, and in those days, in the early '60s -- what was it? '63 maybe? I guess it was -- we did not have the legislative assistant support that members have now, where they have a legislative assistant separate for each committee on which they serve, plus a legislative shop that does all their other legislation. In those days, in small states like Delaware, we had a legislative assistant period. We were on three committees: Agriculture, Environment and Public Works, and Post Office and Civil Service. I did all three of those committees. Agriculture I didn't know anything about at all, and the other two I learned. When he became ranking on that subcommittee, I took on the full responsibility of doing whatever had to be done in terms of the legislation. page 54 I did all of the Clean Air Act legislation along with the Democrats, in formulating it, in getting his positions, whatever they were, pretty well known within the committee.
