A lot of important news in Congress this past week with health care reform obviously topping the Capitol Hill news list. The health care issue erupted into a big mess this past week with conflicting reports regarding what is actually in this huge 1000 page bill in the House. In addition to health care, this update also includes an update on the Sotomayor confirmation process, a loss for gun rights advocates in the Senate, the cutting of the F-22 fighter jets from a defense spending bill, Al Franken's first legislative victory since he was first seated in the Senate, and other bills and happenings from Capitol Hill you might not have heard from the media between Saturday Jul 17th and this past Friday. Then, based on this, I will give you quick rundown of what is anticipated to happen in Congress up until the August recess.
