- "� We'll fix it in Conference �" As we all learned in high school civics, the Congress sends a bill to the President after the House and the Senate have both approved it. Inasmuch as most bills move through the House and the Senate independently, and only one version can go to the President, the differences between the House version and the Senate version are hammered out in a Conference Committee made up of Members of each.
As we have stated here previously, "we'll fix it in Conference," is the standard response to the question: How are you going to get this legislation approved?
