[edit] Exclusion from the federal budget

Dcmacnut, the statement you removed from the House Committee on the Budget's article was technically correct as some programs are not included in the budget, including several approriations made for the war in Iraq. The statement probably needs to be reworded, but the point of the statement was factual. --Daysleeper47 20:59, 19 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] List of House and Senate Committee counterparts

The following tables lists only those committee counterparts in the House and Senate, based on the major area(s) of jurisdiction in each committee. Some committee jurisdictions diverge on just one or two sub-issues, for example jurisdiction over federal holidays lies with the Judiciary Committee in the Senate, but is handled by the Oversight and Government Reform Committee in the House.

[edit] Committees and Caucuses

There are three different types of articles that cover current congressional committees.

  1. Standing Committees
  1. Subcommittees
  1. Joint Committees
  1. Defunt Committees

There are two types of defunct committees including in Wikipedia

  1. Historical committees
  • Committees that were either abolished or had their ‘’’major’’’ jurisdiction merged with a modern committee
    • In general, historical committees should have their own articles explaining the creation and life of the committee and its members. A brief summary should also be included in the modern successor committee, if one exists, as appropriate.
  1. Renamed committees
  • Committees that have seen name changes or ‘’’minor’’’ jurisdictional changes
    • In general, these should be redirects to the current committee name and not a separate article. Brief summary of the name changes should be included in the target committee article.
