Committees in Congress are responsible for specializing in certain areas. One committee may focus on banking, another on international relations. This allows Congress to create a better understanding of particular topics and divide up the world. Each committee has a chairman, who dictates what will be talked about in the committees and the length it will be talked about. Committees have proved themselves useful, such as during the Investigation of the Money Trust in the early 19th century, which lead to the passing of several acts limiting interstate commerce and monopolies.

Members of a congressional committee are responsible for shaping, amending, and voting on legislation relevant to the committee's jurisdiction. They conduct hearings, gather information, and make recommendations to the full Congress based on their findings. Committee members also monitor the implementation of laws and oversee the activities of agencies within their purview.
