Talk:List of United States Senate committees

message: Updated the Section for the 111th Congress.  These are the changes that I've made, but none to the Subcommittees.  John Kerry is taking over Foreign Relations from Joe Biden, who will resign to become Vice President.  Mary Landrieu will take over for John Kerry on Small Business.  Daniel Inouye will be the Appropriations Committee Chairman, which chain-reacts to the following: Jay Rockefeller taking over Commerce, Dianne Feinstein taking over Intelligence, and Chuck Schumer taking over Rules.  All other committee chairmen will be staying the same.
The big unknown is how the 2-chairman rule that Reid is implementing will affect subcommittee chairmenships.  This rule is that no one person can have more than 2 gavels on either committee or subcommittees total.Dunstvangeet (talk) 06:58, 7 January 2009 (UTC)

message: If two Senators begin serving in the same committee on the same day, who would have greater seniority in that committee? For example, Senators Rubio and Kennedy began serving on Appropriations Committee on the same date- Jannuary 3, 2017. Who has greater seniority in that Committee? נריה לוי (talk) 16:52, 10 January 2019 (UTC)

thread_title:  Leaders of committees 

message: I noticed that this page has already started on changing the committee chairs to reflect the Democrats' new majority in the Senate. Under previous circumstances that would make sense. That being said, I don't think these changes should be made just yet. Various news sources are stating that both Senate caucuses are still negotiating terms regarding the assignment of committees and still have not reached a consensus on the issue, and as such the old committees are still in effect, including the Republicans in charge of them. Hence, as of right now when I am writing this (1:02:36 AM ETC, 1/23/2021), until an agreement is formally made, I propose the page be reverted to reflect the current Republican hold on all Senate committees.

replies: text: I agree. Changes in Chairmanships are not finalized until after an organizing resolution, otherwise known as a power-sharing agreement, is passed, which as of 2/2/2021 12:14 CST, has not been voted on. Senator Bernie Sanders mentioned on All In with Chris Hayes on Feb. 1, 2021, that the resolution may happen on February 2, 2021. I cannot find the full video on this, but he mentions the OR minutes after this video ended. I will be more than happy to link the full video, if it can be found: https://www.msnbc.com/all-in/watch/bernie-sanders-on-covid-relief-bill-now-is-not-the-time-to-count-pennies-100374597763.PartedHeadache (talk) 06:29, 2 February 2021 (UTC)
