Monday, February 26, 2007: Back In Session

[16:44]
The Senate has been in quorum call for awhile.  Byron Dorgan (ND) spoke earlier but I did not listen.


[14:00]
Senate is back in action.  Senator Bob Corker (TN) is going to recite President Washington's Farewell Address, a Senate tradition.  He is giving it from the tier just below where the President sits.

Preview/Review:
After a week off for President's Day, the U.S. Senate returns to business this afternoon at 14:00 e.s.t.  At that time, there will be a reading of Washington's Farewell Address.  Following that, a period of morning business.

The Senate's last meeting was last Saturday, when it rejected a motion to proceed to further debate on the House Iraq Resolution.  Here is that roll call vote.
