Conference report

In the United States Congress, a conference report refers to the final version of a bill that is negotiated between the House of Representatives and the Senate via a conference committee.[1] It is printed and submitted to each chamber for its consideration, such as approval or disapproval. It contains a "statement of managers," a section-by-section explanation of the agreement.[2]

Publication procedure edit

An amendment to Rule XXVIII of the Standing Rules of the United States Senate states:

9(a)(1) It shall not be in order to vote on the adoption of a report of a committee of conference unless such report has been available to Members and to the general public for at least 48 hours before such vote. If a point of order is sustained under this paragraph, then the conference report shall be set aside.

Normally, conference reports are printed and made available online in the Congressional Record the day after they have been filed. In those cases when the Government Publishing Office (GPO) is unable to print a conference report the next day, the GPO will scan the manuscript and post the searchable PDF of the manuscript on this web page. Otherwise, links to the conference reports as they appear in the Congressional Record will be posted on this web page.
