Legislative Session
The Senate held a legislative session that included floor speeches and votes rather than debate on a single bill. Republicans used their time to criticize Democrats for blocking the majority’s agenda, citing delayed nominees, two shutdowns, and opposition to tax cuts and an energy permitting deal, and to praise administration efforts against health insurance fraud. Democrats used their time to criticize President Trump, including over a court-blocked press ban, dealings with China, energy costs, and military action against Iran, and said they would force a vote to end that war. The Senate also held a vote, approving a motion 74 to 25, and scheduled a vote on H. Con. Res. 89 for later that afternoon.Written by AI from the debate. Updated .
