The Eighty-Ninth Congress: Second Session
The state of the union today demonstrates what can be accomplished under God by a free people .... The Administration has continued work on its program for the Republic, begun three years ago ... I shall not in this message attempt its detailed delineation. Instead, from time to time during this session, there will be submitted to the Congress specific recommendations within specific fields. In the comprehensive survey required for their preparat…

HE SECOND SESSION of the Eighty-seventh Congress convened on January 10, 1962. In anticipation of the general election in November, observers predicted an early adjournment, but that was not realized until October 13, the latest of any year since 1951.1 The President, on January 11, in delivering his State of the Union message in person to a joint session of Congress, introduced his remarks by stating

The political and organizational structure of the House and Senate for the Second Session remained practically unchanged from that of the First.2 Senator Bridges of New Hampshire was elected Senate Minority Floor Leader, by his Republican colleagues to fill the vacancy created by the death of Senator Kenneth Wherry of Nebraska. But there was not a single change in a chairmanship of a House or Senate standing committee. PROCEDURE AND BUSINESS TRAN…
The Eighty-Third Congress: Second Session
PRESIDENT EISENHOWER in his State of the Union address to the second session of the Eighty-third Congress, on January 7, stated: All branches of this Government -and I venture to say both of our great parties can support the general objective of the recommendations I make today. .. . The President then proceeded to describe our foreign relations and trade, atomic energy, defense and internal security, our national economy, the budget, taxes, agri…
The First Session of the Seventy-eighth Congress
In his budget message for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1944, which really should be labelled the State of the Union Message, President Roosevelt presented in outline his legislative program, which occupied Congress for the session. The message was devoted primarily to war expenditures, farm and food program, stabilization program, civilian control, non-war expenditures, the debt limit, and a pay-as-you-go tax system. Organization . The politic…
The Second Session of the Seventy-Seventh Congress
The course of affairs in the second session of the Seventy-seventh Congress can best be differentiated from that of all recent years if examined with the thought that the United States is in an "all-out" war. That was how the President presented the situation to Congress on January 6 in his annual message on the state of the Union. And that was the phrase frequently used throughout the year by Representatives and Senators as an argument for or ag…

First Session of the Seventy-sixth Congress, January 3 to August 5, 1939
When the first session of the 76th Congress convened, demands for economy and a curtailment of presidential power and influence were rather prevalent in all parts of the country. The activities of the session were influenced by the 1940 election, coalition of parties to act on particular issues, fights between the Executive and Congress, partisan action, and many other political contrivances. In the face of all this, the National Legislature, acc…

Third Session of the Seventy-sixth Congress, January 3, 1940, to January 3, 1941
The sine die adjournment of Congress on January 3 brought down the curtain on the longest and one of the most hectic and unique sessions in American history. As early as January 3, 1940, when the session began, the leaders of the House and Senate were looking forward to a program involving much controversy. But it is doubtful whether anyone anticipated a session drawn out over 367 days, during which $19,069,548,775 would be appropriated and 941 l…

First Session of the Seventy-seventh Congress, January 3, 1941, to January 2, 1942
The first session of the Seventy-seventh Congress witnessed much activity in both houses, resulting, however, mainly in appropriation measures and defense legislation. Most of the bills carried through to enactment were calculated to meet the expectations of the President as set forth in his annual message of January 6, 1941. In that message, the President assured Congress that the “future and the safety of our country and of our democracy are ov…

The Second Session of the Seventy-eighth Congress
The Administration's legislative program for 1944 was presented to Congress in the 1945 budget message and the state of the Union message. Subsequently, drafted bills from heads of departments, administrative agencies, and even the chief executive, were submitted for Congressional approval. But they either embodied or supplemented proposals contained in one of the two messages, or were of an incidental nature. The state of the Union message set f…

The First Session of the Seventy-Ninth Congress
The death of President Franklin D. Roosevelt, followed by the termination of World War II, were the two events of the year having the most direct influence on Congressional activity. The strained relation between Mr. Roosevelt and Congress had been growing increasingly tense during the last several years; it is probable that only the defense program eliminated the possibility of a complete break between the two arms of the government. Congress ha…
The Second Session of the Seventy-ninth Congress
When Congress adjourned sine die on August 2, 1946, it brought to a close its shortest session since 1939. The legislative activity for the year, however, was most important, meriting careful analysis. Representatives and senators had their first opportunity for a good rest since America's entrance into the war, and they also desired time to stage their respective political campaigns. Even at the time of adjournment, members of both parties reali…
The First Session of the Eightieth Congress
The Eightieth Congress convened under unusual circumstances. The Legislative Reorganization Act of 1946 having just become law, the House and Senate were subjected to the most complete reorganization of recent times. This was due to two things. First, both parties in each house had to assign de novo every one of their members to the newly established committees. Normally, all members reëlected to Congress are returned to their same committee assi…
The Second Session of the Eightieth Congress
The second session of the Eightieth Congress was convened under unusual circumstances: the Republicans controlled the Congress, the Democrats the presidency and administration, and both the President and Congress faced a national election. In response to this situation, the majority party at times conducted itself in both houses as if a congressional and presidential Republican victory in the approaching election were a certainty; particular memb…
