The joint conference committee has been meeting for at least a week on the 2007 NDAA. You can go to MOAA - Capwiz and hunt down all the fax numbers your heart desires.

My money says Hasturd will pull the same dirty trick he did last year and not name the House conferees until AFTER the "leadership" has come up with the "conference report" in SECRET, BACK ROOM...

Use the links I have posted previously in this thread. You can find all the Committees in both houses and who's on them. The only thing you will not find is who's on the conference committee. I highly...

gumbyc; Just because the Senate passed their amendment, it doesn't mean that the House will go along with it. That's what happened last year. The Senate overwhelmingly passed the same amendment and it...

Thanks Dan, I forgot the House version did not have the concurrent receipt phase in repeal & IU provision. How do we find out who's doing what and when on this joint conference comittee?

gumbyc; Read my earlier post in this thread concerning the "conferees". I really don't think we will know who the House "conferees" are until AFTER the decision has been made (which I expect will be...

All posts seem to have it correct. The Speaker of the House is not going to let go with the names of House Conferees until it is to late to contact them. Yes, they have probably already made a...

The thing that has totally boggled my mind on this thread is that everyone has been talking about the Conferees. Unless someone knows better, the Reid amendment never made it into the bill. Given...
