The purpose of the Senate creating committees is to organize its workload and enhance efficiency in the legislative process. Committees allow for more detailed examination of proposed legislation, enabling senators to focus on specific areas such as finance, foreign relations, or judiciary matters. This structure facilitates in-depth discussion, expert testimony, and the ability to scrutinize bills before they are presented to the full Senate for a vote. Additionally, committees play a crucial role in oversight of executive branch activities and ensuring accountability.
