The 117th United States Congress is the current meeting of the legislative branch of the United States federal government, composed of the Senate and the House of Representatives.With the new Congress comes new priorities that are in large part dictated by the leadership in both the U.S. House of Representatives and the Senate. At the top of the agenda is confronting America’s most prominent issues with gun ownership and abortion.The unexpectedly close election results down ballot resulted in no gains for Democrats in the House and a Democrat majority in a 50-50 Senate with Vice President Kamala Harris serving as the tiebreaker. This will limit how much can actually get done over the next two years.That being said, as is the case with every Congress, there will be certain “must-pass” legislation that will have to be dealt with no matter what.
