Emphasizing those rules and processes he sees as most important to the policy-making process, Oleszek (senior specialist in American national government at the Congressional Research Service) describes the procedural context of congressional activity. After an introductory chapter on general issues of law making, he provides examinations of the congressional budget process, preliminary legislative action, the scheduling of legislation, floor procedure in the House and Senate, the resolution of House-Senate differences, and legislative oversight.
