Yesterday the Senate returned from the first part of their
abbreviated summer recess as part of their August agenda it was announced that
they would take up HR 6157, the Department of Defense Appropriations Act, 2019.
There are at least two nominations that will be dealt with before the
consideration process begins on that bill.
The amendment process began yesterday with three
amendments being offered. The most important will be SA 3695 (pg S5622-59)
being offered by Sen. Shelby (R,AL). This is the substitute language that will
be considered instead of the House language on the bill. This language was generally
taken from S 3159 (the Senate version of the bill), but also includes language
from S 3158, the Departments of Labor, Health and Human Services, and
Education, and Related Agencies Appropriations Act, 2019. Neither bill has been
reviewed here as I found little of specific interest to readers of this blog.
