Congress is in the end game. Finally.
Majority Leader Harry Reid wants the Senate to go home on December 17.
We do too, so long as the Senate approves New START before going home.
But Reid also laid out an extensive agenda for the next two weeks — including, of course, the New START nuclear reduction treaty.
On the list for the last two weeks:
New START Treaty
Impeachment trial of Louisiana judge
9/11 heath bill
Firefighters collective bargaining
DREAM immigration bill
$250 cost of living for seniors
New Continuing Resolution or Appropriations Bill
Don’t Ask Don’t Tell as part of Defense Authorization Bill
Tax cuts
No partridges or pear trees are on the list.
But maybe Secret Santa has some surprises left.
