First Bill in the Senate Jobs Agenda Passes with Bipartisan Support
February 24, 2010 —Following the passage of the Senate's first jobs bill, the HIRE Act, Democratic Senators heralded the vote as a signal that the Senate's jobs agenda is on the right track. "Today's progress is a small, but important step forward," said Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid. Highlighting efforts by both Democrats and Republicans to pass the bill, Sen. Chuck Schumer said, "To focus on jobs and to do it in a bipartisan way is what the American people are asking us to do and today we've started down that road," said Sen. Chuck Schumer.
The Senate will convene at 9:30 a.m. Following any Leader remarks, there will be a period of morning business with Senators permitted to speak for up to 10 minutes each. The Republicans will control the first 30 minutes and the majority will control the next 30 minutes.
