Explain which committee do you think is more important the House Rules Committee (a standing committee) or a Conference Committee (a joint select committee)?
I think that the conference committee is more important than the standing committee because it resolves issues between the Senate and the House on a particular bill. Without the conference committee, bills would create a severe dividing line between congress, making it even harder to get anything done.
I disagree; I think that the House Rules Committee is more important. The House Rules Committee, rather than being responsible for a specific area of policy, it is in charge of determining what bills will come to the floor. Therefore the House of representatives is not wasting time on a bunch of bills that may not be of great importance. The conference committee could create gridlock if the Senate and the House cannot agree.
I agree with Cassidy that the standing committee is more important. I think that standing committees are more important because they consider and shape the vast majority of proposed laws. They also conduct important investigations if needed and are also permanent committees.
I believe that the House Rules Committee is more important. Along with what Cassidy said, the House Rules Committee is a standing committee that is constantly in session. Conference committees are only created when a bill needs to be resolved between the House and the Senate. With more time to meet comes more important issues and more time to conduct investigations.
