House could be voting till late December--after two long breaks
A congressional Christmas?
House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer Wednesday announced the prospective House of Representatives schedule for the rest of 2009, and he warns members could be voting up till December 22.
"As action on health insurance reform legislation moves to the Senate, the House is updating its schedule for November and December to reflect that, and to ensure there is time to complete our work on other important issues," Hoyer said.
Then again, Hoyer and the rest of the House, as well as the Senate, is done with voting this week--everyone's gone till Monday for an extended Veterans Day recess. They're back next week, then gone again for a week-long Thanksgiving break.
Here's the schedule:
