COMMITTEE RULES
I. RULES OF PROCEDURE
Regular Meeting Days.--The regular meeting day of the committee shall
be the second and fourth Tuesday of each month, except that if there be
no business before the committee the regular meeting shall be omitted.
Committee Meetings.--(a) Except as provided by paragraph 3 of Rule XXVI
of the Standing Rules of the Senate (relating to special meetings
called by a majority of the committee) and subsection (b) of this rule,
committee meetings, for the conduct of business, for the purpose of
holding hearings, or for any other purpose, shall be called by the
chairman. Members will be notified of committee meetings at least 48
hours in advance, unless the chairman determines that an emergency
situation requires a meeting on shorter notice. The notification will
include a written agenda together with materials prepared by the staff
relating to that agenda. After the agenda for a committee meeting is
published and distributed, no nongermane items may be brought up during
that meeting unless at least two-thirds of the members present agree to
consider those items.
In the absence of the chairman, meetings of the committee may be called
by the ranking majority member of the committee who is present,
provided authority to call meetings has been delegated to such member
by the chairman.
Presiding Officer.--(a) The chairman shall preside at all meetings and
hearings of the committee except that in his absence the ranking
majority member who is present at the meeting shall preside.
Notwithstanding the rule prescribed by subsection (a) any member of the
committee may preside over the conduct of a hearing.
Quorums.--(a) Except as provided in subsection (b) one-third of the
membership of the committee, including not less than one member of the
majority party and one member of the minority party, shall constitute a
quorum for the conduct of business.
Notwithstanding the rule prescribed by subsection (a) one member shall
constitute a quorum for the purpose of conducting a hearing.
Reporting of Measures or Recommendations.--No measure or recommendation
shall be reported from the committee unless a majority of the committee
is actually present and a majority of those present concur.
Proxy Voting; Polling.--(a) Except as provided by paragraph 7(a)(3) of
Rule XXVI of the Standing Rules of the Senate (relating to limitation
on use of proxy voting to report a measure or matter), members who are
unable to be present may have their vote recorded by proxy.
At the discretion of the committee, members who are unable to be
present and whose vote has not been cast by proxy may be polled for the
purpose of recording their vote on any rollcall taken by the committee.
Order of Motions.--When several motions are before the committee
dealing with related or overlapping matters, the chairman may specify
the order in which the motions shall be voted upon.
Bringing a Matter to a Vote.--If the chairman determines that a motion
or amendment has been adequately debated, he may call for a vote on
such motion or amendment, and the vote shall then be taken, unless the
committee votes to continue debate on such motion or amendment, as the
case may be. The vote on a motion to continue debate on any motion or
amendment shall be taken without debate.
Public Announcement of Committee Votes.--Pursuant to paragraph 7(b) of
Rule XXVI of the Standing Rules of the Senate (relating to public
announcement of votes), the results of rollcall votes taken by the
committee on any measure (or amendment thereto) or matter shall be
announced publicly not later than the day on which such measure or
matter is ordered reported from the committee.
Subpoenas.--Subpoenas for attendance of witnesses and the production of
memoranda, documents, and records shall be issued by the chairman, or
by any other member of the committee designated by him.
Nominations.--In considering a nomination, the committee may conduct an
investigation or review of the nominee's experience, qualifications,
and suitability, to serve in the position to which he or she has been
nominated. To aid in such investigation or review, each nominee may be
required to submit a sworn detailed statement including biographical,
financial, policy, and other information which the committee may
request. The committee may specify which items in such statement are to
be received on a confidential basis. Witnesses called to testify on the
nomination may be required to testify under oath.
Open Committee Hearings.--To the extent required by paragraph 5 of Rule
XXVI of the Standing Rules of the Senate (relating to limitations on
open hearings), each hearing conducted by the committee shall be open
to the public.
Announcement of Hearings.--The committee shall undertake consistent
with the provisions of paragraph 4(a) of Rule XXVI of the Standing
Rules of the Senate (relating to public notice of committee hearings)
to issue public announcements of hearings it intends to hold at least
one week prior to the commencement of such hearings.
Witnesses at Hearings.--(a) Each witness who is scheduled to testify at
any hearing must submit his written testimony to the staff director not
later than noon of the business day immediately before the last
business day preceding the day on which he is scheduled to appear. Such
written testimony shall be accompanied by a brief summary of the
principal points covered in the written testimony. Having submitted his
written testimony, the witness shall be allowed not more than 10
minutes for oral presentation of his statement.
Witnesses may not read their entire written testimony, but must confine
their oral presentation to a summarization of their arguments.
Witnesses shall observe proper standards of dignity, decorum, and
propriety while presenting their views to the committee. Any witness
who violates this rule shall be dismissed, and his testimony (both oral
and written) shall not appear in the record of the hearing.
In scheduling witnesses for hearings, the staff shall attempt to
schedule witnesses so as to attain a balance of views early in the
hearings. Every member of the committee may designate witnesses who
will appear before the committee to testify. To the extent that a
witness designated by a member cannot be scheduled to testify during
the time set aside for the hearing, a special time will be set aside
for the witness to testify if the member designating that witness is
available at that time to chair the hearing.
Audiences.--Persons admitted into the audience for open hearings of the
committee shall conduct themselves with the dignity, decorum, courtesy,
and propriety traditionally observed by the Senate. Demonstrations of
approval or disapproval of any statement or act by any member or
witness are not allowed. Persons creating confusion or distractions or
otherwise disrupting the orderly proceeding of the hearing shall be
expelled from the hearing.
Broadcasting of Hearings.--(a) Broadcasting of open hearings by
television or radio coverage shall be allowed upon approval by the
chairman of a request filed with the staff director not later than noon
of the day before the day on which such coverage is desired.
If such approval is granted, broadcasting coverage of the hearing shall
be conducted unobtrusively and in accordance with the standards of
dignity, propriety, courtesy, and decorum traditionally observed by the
Senate.
Equipment necessary for coverage by television and radio media shall
not be installed in, or removed from, the hearing room while the
committee is in session.
Additional lighting may be installed in the hearing room by the media
in order to raise the ambient lighting level to the lowest level
necessary to provide adequate television coverage of the hearing at the
then current state of the art of television coverage.
The additional lighting authorized by subsection (d) of this rule shall
not be directed into the eyes of any members of the committee or of any
witness, and at the request of any such member or witness, offending
lighting shall be extinguished.
Subcommittees.--(a) The chairman, subject to the approval of the
committee, shall appoint legislative subcommittees. All legislation
shall be kept on the full committee calendar unless a majority of the
members present and voting agree to refer specific legislation to an
appropriate subcommittee.
The chairman may limit the period during which House-passed legislation
referred to a subcommittee under paragraph (a) will remain in that
subcommittee. At the end of that period, the legislation will be
restored to the full committee calendar. The period referred to in the
preceding sentences should be 6 weeks, but may be extended in the event
that adjournment or a long recess is imminent.
All decisions of the chairman are subject to approval or modification
by a majority vote of the committee.
The full committee may at any time by majority vote of those members
present discharge a subcommittee from further consideration of a
specific piece of legislation.
The chairman and ranking minority member shall serve as nonvoting ex
officio members of the subcommittees on which they do not serve as
voting members.
Any member of the committee may attend hearings held by any
subcommittee and question witnesses testifying before that
subcommittee.
Subcommittee meeting times shall be coordinated by the staff director
to ensure that--
(1) no subcommittee meeting will be held when the committee is in
executive session, except by unanimous consent;
(2) no more than one subcommittee will meet when the full committee is
holding hearings; and
(3) not more than two subcommittees will meet at the same time.
Notwithstanding paragraphs (2) and (3), a subcommittee may meet when
the full committee is holding hearings and two subcommittees may meet
at the same time only upon the approval of the chairman and the ranking
minority member of the committee and subcommittees involved.
All nominations shall be considered by the full committee.
The chairman will attempt to schedule reasonably frequent meetings of
the full committee to permit consideration of legislation reported
favorably to the committee by the subcommittees.
Transcripts of Committee Meetings.--An accurate record shall be kept of
all markups of the committee, whether they be open or closed to the
public. A transcript, marked as ``uncorrected,'' shall be available for
inspection by Members of the Senate, or members of the committee
together with their staffs, at any time. Not later than 21 business
days after the meeting occurs, the committee shall make publicly
available through the Internet--
a video recording; (a)
an audio recording; or (b)
after all members of the committee have had a reasonable opportunity to
correct their remarks for grammatical errors or to accurately reflect
statements, a corrected transcript.
Notwithstanding the above, in the case of the record of an executive
session of the committee that is closed to the public pursuant to Rule
XXVI of the Standing Rules of the Senate, the record shall not be
published or made public in any way except by majority vote of the
committee after all members of the committee have had a reasonable
opportunity to correct their remarks for grammatical errors or to
accurately reflect statements made.
Amendment of Rules.--The foregoing rules may be added to, modified,
amended, or suspended at any time.
