In each chamber, the House of Representatives and the Senate, bills submitted for consideration are assigned to the appropriate Committee/Subcommittee for review, hearings, discussions and amendment before being taken up by the whole body. The party in the majority controls the chairmanship of each committee and subcommittee.
