To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The introduction of a bill is a very simple matter; the bill is simply placed upon the desk of the presiding ofi&cer or Clerk, and after being read by title is referred to an appropriate committee. Should the bill be reported by the committee, it is read a second time and placed upon the "calendar." This does not guarantee that the bill will ever be acted upon, as bills are not taken from the calendar in order. When a bill is taken from the calendar it is read a third time and may be debated. I...n the House there is ordinarily little chance for debate as the Speaker usually recognizes only those who have previously obtained his consent, or the consent of the chairman of the committee which re- ported the bill, and debate may be closed at any time by having a member of the majority move the "previous question, " which, if carried, compels an immediate vote. In the Senate debate is more encouraged. The Vice- President exercises no such authority as the Speaker, and debate is not so limited by the rules.
