Trent Lott is the Senate Majority leader. The Vice President of the United States presides over the Senate. The first two political parties in the United States were the Federalist and the Democratic-Republicans. Zach Wamp is our Congressman. Richard Gephardt is the Minority Leader in the House.
Whips are assistants to the floor leaders who are also elected by their party conferences.
In the absence of the party floor leader, the whip often serves as acting floor leader. I am a full time homemaker, a wife, and the mother of three children. I taught home economics for five years at the junior high level, worked in personnel and inventory control of a major department store for three years, and returned to teaching home economics and science at the high school level for three years. I resigned to raise a family at the birth of our first child, but have continued to renew my teaching certificate.
