The rules committee

To find the answers to these questions, you can refer to the rules and procedures of the United States Congress. These rules are often published online and can be accessed on official government websites or other reliable sources.

1. The first question asks about the role of the House Rules Committee in the Senate. To determine the answer, you need to understand that the House and the Senate are two separate chambers of Congress with different structures and procedures. The House of Representatives has a Rules Committee, but the Senate does not have an equivalent committee. Therefore, the answer is not listed among the options provided.

2. The second question asks about the calendars that House leaders can use to schedule debates on a bill. To answer this question, you need to know the types of calendars typically used in the House of Representatives. By eliminating the calendars listed in the options, you can determine that the correct answer is "C) Congressional Calendar" because the other calendars (Union Calendar, House Calendar, and Private Calendar) are legitimate types used in the House.

3. The third question inquires about where a full committee of the House reports a bill. To answer this question, you need to understand the different stages a bill goes through in Congress. After a bill is introduced in the House, it is referred to a committee for further consideration. If the bill is reported favorably by the committee, it is typically sent back to the full House for floor action. Therefore, the correct answer is "d) floor action."

4. The fourth question asks about bills that start in the House, indicated by the arrow labeled X. To determine where bills traveling along the arrow labeled Y have started from, you need to understand the legislative process. Bills can originate from different sources, such as legislators, government agencies, private citizens, or organizations. By process of elimination, you can determine that the correct answer is "d) the Senate" because the other options listed are not typically sources for bill initiation.

5. The final question asks about the reporting process for a bill by a subcommittee. You should know that a bill is often assigned to a subcommittee for in-depth examination and discussion. If the subcommittee decides to report the bill favorably, it is typically sent back to the full committee. Therefore, the correct answer is "c) a full committee."

By following these steps and referring to the appropriate resources, you can find the answers to these questions.
