OUTLOOK FOR THE 110th CONGRESS

Introduction

The November 7 election significantly changed the congressional outlook for 2007 by returning Democrats to power in both chambers for the first time in 12 years. Senate Democrats picked up six seats and will hold a 51-49 majority in the 110th Congress. In the House, Democrats picked up 29 seats and now hold a 231-197 majority with seven races still too close to call. In the 109th Congress, Republicans controlled the Senate 55-45 and the House 232-203.

The change in leadership puts a whole new set of issues on the congressional agenda and will reshape the last two years of the Bush presidency. This document provides a brief overview of how the 2007-2008 outlook on key issues has changed with the Democratic takeover of Congress.

Democratic Priorities

Senate Democratic Leader and House Democratic Leader laid out a broad, unified agenda in June when they launched their “Six for ‘06” campaign, which included six broad themes they highlighted as Democratic priorities. Below is how the Democrats summarized these goals in a press release:

• Make Health Care More Affordable: Fix the prescription drug program by putting people ahead of drug companies and HMO’s, eliminating wasteful subsidies, negotiating lower drug prices and ensuring the program works for all seniors; invest in and other medical research. • Lower Gas Prices and Achieve Energy Independence: Crack down on price gouging; eliminate billions in subsidies for oil and gas companies and use the savings to provide consumer relief and develop American alternatives, including biofuels; promote energy efficient technology. • Help Working Families: Raise the ; repeal tax giveaways that encourage companies to move jobs overseas. • Cut College Costs: Make college tuition deductible from taxes; expand Pell grants and slash student loan costs. • Ensure Dignified : Prevent the privatization of Social Security; expand savings incentives; and ensure pension fairness. • Require Fiscal Responsibility: Restore the budget discipline of the 1990s that helped eliminate deficits and spur record economic growth. More recently, House Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi has pushed a more specific plan to make progress on six high-priority areas in the Democrats’ first 100 legislative hours in power in January:

• Restore civility to the operations of the House and pass reform. • Pass all the recommendations made by the bipartisan 9/11 Commission. • Raise the minimum wage. • Broaden college opportunity and cut the interest rate in half on student loans. • Make health care more affordable, promote stem cell research, and allow the government to negotiate lower drug prices for patients. • Roll back the multi-billion dollar subsidies for Big Oil companies and invest in energy independence.

Appropriations

The outlook for appropriations in the 110th Congress depends greatly on how and when Congress completes the remaining ten fiscal 2007 spending bills in the lame duck session that began on November 13. It appears GOP leaders aim to complete the appropriations bills by early to mid- December. Both parties have incentives to follow this timeline – the Republican leadership hopes to finish the fiscal 2007 bills while they’re still in power, while Democrats would prefer to start the 110th Congress with a clean slate. It is still possible, of course, that the Republicans could choose to extend the current continuing resolution (CR) to next year and force the Democrats to deal with the remaining appropriations bills as their first order of business.

Democratic control of both the House and the Senate will likely create a showdown between Congress and President Bush over domestic spending. Democrats have been critical of President Bush’s spending priorities and believe that Republicans have under-funded a variety of domestic programs. Once they assume control of the Appropriations Committees, they will almost certainly seek to increase funding for these programs, as well as certain homeland security programs, including port and transportation security grants and first-responder funding. However, Democrats will have to carefully balance their desire for increased domestic funding with their goal of restoring fiscal responsibility and the continued need for defense spending.

Given the activity in the 109th Congress, it is clear where Democrats would like to increase funding. Last year, incoming House Appropriations Chairman David Obey (D-WI) attempted to add $13 billion for domestic and homeland security accounts, offset by rolling back the tax cuts on people making more than $1 million. Proposed increases included $4.7 billion for Labor-HHS- programs, $2 billion for Homeland Security, $1.7 billion for Transportation-Treasury-Housing activities, and $1 billion for Energy and Water. Senate Democrats, meanwhile, have consistently tried to boost funding for veterans’ medical care and homeland security programs. In order to fulfill these priorities, Democrats will try to increase total discretionary spending beyond the level that Bush proposes in his fiscal 2008 budget.

However, the will likely continue to insist on cuts in overall domestic spending. They will be bolstered by conservative Republicans, and even some Democrats, who have been pushing for balanced budgets. The Blue Dog Democrats in the House, who represent the more fiscally moderate and conservative wing, gained many new members through the elections and will number at least 44 – about 20 percent of the new House Democratic majority. President Bush will also retain his advantage with the ability to veto spending bills, and, given the narrow Democratic

4

majorities, finding the two-thirds vote needed to override any veto will be difficult.

Incoming Senate Appropriations Chairman (D-WV) and Chairman Obey will push for timely completion of the fiscal 2008 appropriations bills. This will be a difficult task as the committees will also need to approve an enormous war supplemental that is expected early next year. And, if Congress does not finish work on the remaining fiscal 2007 bills during the lame duck session, they will need to complete those first.

The Democrats will also likely try to revise the appropriations subcommittee structure. The House currently has 10 subcommittees, while the Senate has 12, which causes a mismatch between some of their jurisdictions, making conferencing bills difficult. For instance, the House Transportation, Treasury, Housing and Urban Development, and District of Columbia Subcommittee will likely be divided, and the House State Department budget may move to the Foreign Operations Subcommittee to match the Senate. A number of other changes are expected to ensure that the subcommittee structure better reflects Democratic interests and priorities.

Earmarks are likely to receive greater scrutiny as well. In the 109th Congress, Rep. Obey supported a Democratic proposal to require that members declare if they stand to benefit from any earmarks they are seeking. The requirement was part of a broad lobbying package that Democrats tried to pass, but the Republican leadership did not allow it to come to a vote.

As for the structure of the subcommittees, in most cases, the ranking Democrat will likely chair his or her subcommittee in the 110th Congress. One important exception is the Energy and Water Subcommittee that had been chaired by Sen. Harry Reid. Sen. Reid will leave the Appropriations Committee when he assumes his Majority Leader post in January. One scenario has Sen. Byron Dorgan (D-ND) taking over as chairman of the Energy and Water Subcommittee. If this is the case, Sen. (D-CA) is in line to take over as chair of the Interior Subcommittee, and Sen. Tim Johnson (D-SD) will then take over for Sen. Feinstein as chair of the Military Construction Subcommittee. With Sen. Reid’s decision to leave the committee, Democrats are able to add three new members to the Appropriations Committee: Sen. Jack Reed (D-RI), Sen. Frank Lautenberg (D- NJ), and Sen. (D-NE). Further reshuffling is possible if significant changes are made to the subcommittee structure. Because of the loss of Sen. Conrad Burns (R-MT) and Sen. Mike DeWine (R-OH), Republicans will not need to make any cuts to their committee membership when the party ratios change next year and will likely get to add a new member.

Homeland Security

The Democratic takeover of Congress portends more aggressive oversight of the almost five-year old Department of Homeland Security. Incoming chairman of the House Homeland Security Committee, Bennie Thompson (D-MS), has already signaled the committee will be busy conducting hearings and investigations and writing reports. Speaker of the House-designate Nancy Pelosi (D- CA) said one of her top priorities as leader will be implementing the recommendations of the 9-11 Commission. Both the House and Senate homeland committees are likely to introduce legislation stemming from those recommendations, as well as legislation reauthorizing the Department. On the Senate side, incoming Chairman (I-CT) has a good working relationship with outgoing Chairman (R-ME), so the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee will not see any dramatic change. Democratic leaders in both the House and

5

Senate have stressed the need for increased rail, mass transit, and port security, as well as tighter security around chemical plants. Those issues, along with whatever issues emerge from the House’s oversight and investigation efforts, promise a busy two years for those working in and around homeland security.

Transportation

Rep. James Oberstar (D-MN) will take over as chairman of the House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee. Oberstar is well regarded as a transportation expert and has a very good relationship with the current chairman, (R-AK). While Rep. Young may remain as the top Republican on the committee, Representatives John “Jimmy” Duncan (R-TN), (R-FL), and Tom Petri (R-WI) are all interested in replacing him, and Young may choose to take the senior position on the Resources Committee instead. At the top of the committee’s agenda in 2007 is the reauthorization of the Federal Aviation Administration. The future funding mechanism of the Aviation Trust Fund will be a controversial issue, and Mary Peters, the new Secretary of Transportation, is expected to put forth an administration proposal to restructure FAA’s funding system that may not be well received by Democrats on the panel. Rep. Oberstar is a long-time supporter of passenger rail and will also likely make Amtrak reauthorization a high priority, as well as the annual Coast Guard authorization bill.

On the Senate side, transportation jurisdiction is split between three committees. The Committee on Commerce, Science and Transportation, to be chaired by Sen. Daniel Inouye (D-HI), has jurisdiction over aviation, rail, and maritime issues. Sen. Inouye and the current chairman, Sen. (R-AK), have a strong working relationship and are expected to take up FAA and Amtrak reauthorization, work to strengthen rail and transit security, and move a pipeline safety bill.

The Committee on Environment and Public Works will be chaired by Sen. (D-CA). The current ranking member on the committee, Sen. (I-VT), is retiring. The EPW Committee has jurisdiction over federal highway programs and will begin the long process of reauthorizing the SAFETEA-LU bill that funds surface transportation programs.

Finally, the Committee on Banking, Housing and Urban Affairs oversees federal transit programs. The incoming chairman, Sen. (D-CT), will take over on the Democratic side for retiring Sen. (D-MD). Current Chairman (R-AL) will remain on as the ranking Republican.

Defense

The upcoming changes to the leadership in Congress and the Defense Department could bring about new policies, but the extent of these changes is still uncertain. In Congress, Democratic leaders in both the Senate and House have called for lowering the number of troops in , but differences remain about whether this should be done immediately or phased over time.

6

Democratic leaders have called for investigations into war profiteering and closer monitoring of how defense contracts are given out by the government. Incoming Majority Leader, Sen. Harry Reid (D- NV), has called for the “first order of business to investigate Iraq.”

Both the House and Senate Defense Appropriations incoming chairmen, Rep. (D-PA) and Sen. Daniel Inouye (D-HI), have supported many of ’s new weapons programs. Incoming House Armed Services Committee chairman, (D-MO), has called for an increase in the size of the Navy, as well as improvements in healthcare and other benefits for military families. Secretary of Defense nominee has not defined what a Defense Department under his leadership would look like or what specific changes he would make.

Telecommunications

Telecommunications issues and legislation will likely take a different path under the new Democratic- led Congress than they did in the 109th Congress. Instead of an all-out push for a comprehensive reform bill, industry observers expect a more targeted approach with an emphasis on individual subject areas. Incoming House Energy and Commerce Committee chairman, (D-MI), has listed his telecom priorities as tighter media ownership rules, public safety spectrum availability, universal service reform, and increased oversight of the Federal Communications Commission. Dingell’s interests tend toward the committee’s other responsibilities such as energy and health care, so telecommunications is not as likely to dominate the agenda. There is also speculation that Rep. (D-MA), the long-time chief Democrat on the Telecommunications and Subcommittee, may not take over as subcommittee chairman because of a competing opportunity to chair the House Resources Committee. If that happens, then telecommunications is likely to fall further behind the committee’s other areas of jurisdiction. Outgoing committee and subcommittee chairmen, (R-TX) and (R-MI), will likely have minimal roles in setting the new agenda.

On the Senate side, Sen. Inouye (D-HI) will be the chairman of the Senate Commerce Committee. In the 109th Congress, outgoing Chairman Ted Stevens (R-AK) reorganized the committee’s subcommittees to eliminate the communications panel. It is likely the Democratic leadership will resurrect the communications subcommittee, in which case Sen. John Rockefeller (D-WV) will assume the chairmanship. As a strong proponent of the Universal Service program, Rockefeller is bound to devote much of the subcommittee’s time and energy to that issue. The committee may continue to examine , but there is enough confusion and disagreement on the issue that few expect much action. Both the House and Senate committees will spend a lot of time conducting oversight in the upcoming two years, and FCC Chairman Kevin Martin can expect to headline many hearings.

Health Care

The Democratic takeover of both the House and Senate is likely to provide a new push for health care-related legislation in the 110th Congress. Nancy Pelosi has stated that within the first 100 legislative hours of the session, she is planning to introduce two health care measures. The first will remove the ban that currently prevents the federal government from negotiating directly with pharmaceutical companies for discounts on prescription drugs under Medicare. The second would expand federal funding for embryonic stem cell research. As this is sure to be a controversial issue,

7

Democrats may include new restrictions on cloning and other areas of stem cell research in such a bill in hopes of compromising with House Republicans and staving off a presidential veto.

The likely committee chairs on both the House and Senate side have already alluded to many of the health care-related issues their committees will tackle in the 110th Congress. Congressman John Dingell (D-MI), who will take over as chairman of the House Energy and Commerce Committee, is set to address what the Democrats consider major flaws in Medicare Part D by streamlining and simplifying the program. He has noted that the program is “too complicated” and “too costly.” Congressman (D-CA), who will chair the House Ways and Means Health Subcommittee, has said he will seek to pass legislation that will offer a long-term solution to the sustainable growth rate (SGR) formula currently used to set physician payments. In addition, Congressman (D-CA), also on the Ways and Means Committee, said he will introduce a bill early next year to establish an FDA approval process for generic biotech medications. Chairing the Senate Committee on Health, Education, Labor and Pensions, Sen. Edward Kennedy (D-MA), says his committee will work to confirm a permanent FDA Commissioner. In both the House and the Senate, Democrats are expected to prioritize the expansion of access to affordable health insurance coverage to the uninsured. First on the agenda will be to focus on the uninsured children population by addressing the funding shortfalls of the State Children’s Health Insurance Program, or S-CHIP, which is up for reauthorization next year. Democrats will also focus on Health IT and reform at the National Institutes of Health.

Financial Services

Both the Senate Banking, Housing and Urban Affairs Committee and the House Financial Services Committee will retain their bipartisan working relationship as the chairmanships change in the 110th Congress. The new Senate chairman will be Christopher Dodd (D-CT), and the ranking member will be current Chairman Richard Shelby (R-AL). In the House, (D-MA) will take over the reins of the committee, but the ranking member position is still undecided with the frontrunners being Richard Baker (R-LA) and (R-AL).

An issue that will most likely be at the forefront of the agenda next year for both chambers is whether or not to permanently extend the Terrorism Risk Insurance Act, which expires at the end of next year and the Democrats are interested in extending. Both chambers indicate that there will be oversight of the 2002 Sarbanes-Oxley Act, the landmark corporate governance law. Another issue on the horizon is legislation to overhaul regulation of mortgage finance giants and , if current legislation does not clear Congress in the lame duck session of the current Congress. Both Dodd and Frank would like to see legislation encouraging the government-sponsored enterprises (GSEs) to increase the availability of affordable housing. Most likely, large investment pools, known as hedge funds, will be scrutinized in the next Congress. Due to their increasingly prominent role in the securities market, hedge funds are a target of oversight for the committees. No lawmaker has expressed an interest in regulating these funds, but panel members acknowledge their importance and the risk they create for the economy.

The Senate is expected to look at overhauling the process for government review of foreign investments in the . Legislation addressing this is on the table for the 109th Congress but may not be addressed during the lame duck session. In the House, look for Barney Frank to

8

examine whether or not to allow retailers such as Wal-Mart and Home Depot to establish their own banking operations.

Energy and Environment

The House Resources Committee is likely to have a dramatically different agenda in the next Congress when II (D-WV) takes the reins from outgoing Chairman , a rancher who has fought to loosen environmental laws. Unlike Pombo, who advocated boosting production of fossil fuels on public lands – including offshore areas and in 's Arctic National Wildlife Refuge – Rahall wants to enact new legislation that would focus on energy sources beyond fossil fuels. This would include taking a leading role in promoting alternative energy sources, such as wind and biofuels. There has been some talk that Rep. Ed Markey (D-MA), who is more environmentally progressive, may challenge Rahall for the top slot on this committee.

If selected as the next committee chairman, Rahall said that he would focus on protecting "right to know" laws such as the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) that have been under attack by Republicans in recent years, as well as on controversial outer continental shelf (OCS) oil and gas royalty relief payments from the Interior Department. "As Resources Chairman, I will maintain NEPA, end royalty holidays in the OCS and giveaways under the Mining Law of 1872, prioritize the reclamation of abandoned coal mines and miners, advance Native American health care, and tackle territorial issues such as political self determination," Rahall said in a statement to Greenwire.

Rahall said that he will seek to advance clean-coal technology and will push legislation that will redirect fees paid by coal companies to cover health care costs of some retired miners and to speed the cleanup of abandoned mine sites. Also, unlike Pombo, Rahall believes that the Endangered Species Act does not need an overhaul but that more money is needed for federal agencies to fulfill their responsibilities under the law.

Pombo's loss may open the door for James Saxton (R-NJ) to become the committee's ranking Republican in the new Congress. Saxton is a moderate who has strong support from the environmental community. However, Rep. Don Young (R-AK) may choose to take the top minority slot on the Resources Committee rather than fight to retain his ranking position on Transportation and Infrastructure.

Incoming House Energy and Commerce Committee Chairman John Dingell (D-MI) outlined an ambitious 2007 agenda for his panel that includes pushing legislation on alternative fuels, technology, and conservation, as well as oversight of Energy Department programs. Dingell said he would "drive hard" to promote alternative fuels, energy efficiency, and conservation. In particular, he cited a bill sponsored by Rep. (D-MD) in the current Congress that would fund research into highly efficient automobiles and increase investment in biofuels. The bill (HR 5965) would not establish new fuel efficiency standards for automobiles, a traditional Democratic issue that Dingell has often opposed, as do auto manufacturers in his home state.

In other areas, Dingell said his panel would look into federal implementation of the Energy Policy Act of 2005, uniform appliance standards, the state of the nuclear waste trust fund, and environmental issues such as leaking underground storage tanks, brownfields issues, and Superfund. He is

9

particularly interested in efforts to exempt farms from the Superfund program, which he called an "outrage."

As incoming chairman of the Senate Energy and Natural Resources Committee, Jeff Bingaman (D- NM) is poised to take over the Senate energy debate after a year of largely futile activity by GOP leaders. A centrist, Bingaman has a history of that should enable a smooth transition. Bingaman and outgoing chairman, Pete Domenici, have established a solid working relationship over the years. He worked with Domenici to enact a compromise 2005 energy policy overhaul.

The emphasis, however, will shift away from supply-side solutions toward energy efficiency, conservation, and such long-term problems as . Bingaman is expected to introduce a climate change bill in the 110th Congress.

Although Bingaman supports , as does Domenici, and many initiatives to boost production, Bingaman opposes drilling in Alaska's National Wildlife Refuge and gives great emphasis to energy efficiency and renewable energy resources. A member of the Finance Committee as well, he has helped steer energy-related tax breaks into law.

Few committees will see a more significant change in style and priorities than the Senate Environment and Public Works Committee, where liberal California Democrat Barbara Boxer is poised to take over from conservative Republican James Inhofe of . Boxer said that she is planning for vigorous oversight and legislation to make sure that the Senate is once again an environmental leader in protecting the health of families and children and addressing pressing concerns like global warming. She intends to make global warming one of her top priorities and characterizes climate change as one of the most serious problems facing the planet, where Inhofe has long contended that the threat of climate change is a hoax, calling it a “Chicken Little” story.

Boxer said that she plans to use California’s new global warming law as a model in the drafting of federal climate legislation for the 110th Congress. California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger (R) this summer signed into law the first statewide cap on heat-trapping , forcing a cut of 25 percent by 2020.

Another issue that will almost certainly re-emerge in the next Congress is the regulation of air pollution from power plants. Boxer has cosponsored an ambitious proposal to cut down on electric utilities’ emissions of mercury, nitrogen oxide, sulfur dioxide, and carbon dioxide. However, she may face a fight with some of the panel’s Democrats over that plan.

Labor

A Democratic majority signals a new approach to workforce and labor issues. In fact, the House Education and the Workforce Committee will experience one of the biggest changes. Incoming Chairman George Miller (D-CA) is expected to restore the original name of the committee, the House Education and Labor Committee, which Republicans changed after they took control of Congress in 1994. Sen. (D-MA) will be the new chairman of the Senate Health, Education, Labor and Pensions (HELP) Committee.

10

One of the first agenda items planned for the 110th Congress is a workforce issue. Democrats are expected to pass legislation to increase the federal minimum wage, which has been stagnant at $5.15 an hour for nine years. Lawmakers on both sides of the aisle support increasing the minimum wage, and polls show that there is strong support among the public as well. Therefore, many believe it will be difficult for President Bush to veto a minimum wage increase if it lands on his desk. One of the questions that remains unanswered is whether Republicans will be able to tie small business tax breaks to any minimum wage increase to help small businesses balance the increased wage. Democrats will likely attempt to raise the minimum wage to $7.25.

Miller and Kennedy are also expected to focus on altering union organizing rules since both men pushed legislation (H.R. 1696/S. 842) in the 109th Congress to require employers to recognize unions formed by majority of employees through a petition process. With Republicans in control, the legislation never advanced. Labor unions, however, will be expecting Democratic support of their priorities for helping to deliver the election, and union organizing rules are an important labor issue.

Sen. Kennedy may also try to move legislation to prohibit employers from discriminating against workers based on genetic information. Sen. (R-WY), who will become ranking member on the HELP Committee, supports the legislation, and the Senate passed a bipartisan bill (S. 306) in February 2005. The U.S. Chamber of Commerce opposes the legislation but with Democrats setting the agenda, it may get a renewed push during the 110th Congress.

Kennedy and Enzi, like Miller and Congressman Howard “Buck” McKeon, who is likely to become the House committee’s ranking member, have all had good working relationships in the past, and they are expected to continue work together when possible during the 110th Congress.
