Congress Returns

With Labor Day celebrated, the new political term begins in Congress. It's likely to be a bruising few weeks - which this blog will be following. The schedule for the House of representatives can be found at http://democraticleader.house.gov/docUploads/27WeeklyLeader090309.pdf?CFID=7017212&CFTOKEN=43085550

The President will be addressing a Joint Session of Congress on Wednesday. Sadly it is in the evening - which is not good news for those of us the wrong side of a five hour time difference. The House assembles at 8pm EDT (1am in England).
