House Daily Summary
Overview On the eve of the President’s State of the Union address, one cannot be surprised that the House didn’t accomplish much. Expect the same exact thing tomorrow. Anything that Democrats wanted to trumpet would be immediately scooped back up into the post-game war debate that will envelope the rest of the week’s media cycles. ____
H.Res. 52 is a resolution paying tribute to Reverend Waitstill Sharp and Martha Sharp for their recognition by the Yad Vashem Holocaust Martyrs’ and Heroes’ Remembrance Authority as Righteous Among the Nations for their heroic efforts to save Jews during the Holocaust. It passed the House by a vote of 413-0.
H.R. 390 is a bill to require the establishment of a national database in the National Archives to preserve records of servitude, emancipation, and post-Civil War reconstruction and to provide grants to State and local entities to establish similar local databases. It passed the House 414-1. Rep. Ron Paul (R-TX) apparently was not pleased with the wording of the legislation, for whatever reason.
H.Res. 29 is a resolution supporting the goals and ideals of National Mentoring Month. It passed the House 410-0.

The above header text will become a link to a culled and consolidated portions congressional record of the committees of the House that had activity on the date this page is about. This blurb here will also eventually have a format on how to link to the relevant committee articles in the Congressional Committees Project. I envision that the portions of the congressional record that will be at this link (formated similar to the floor portions of the record would be a also utilized (and with luck, maintained by those signing up for the various committees by that project.
