    How should Congress balance the ceremonial importance of attending inaugurations with the legislative work that gets delayed when the House adjourns?

  2. 02

    What costs and logistics are involved in transporting all House members and staff to the inaugural ceremony, and who ultimately bears that expense?

  3. 03

    Does scheduling the House reconvening for noon on January 21st provide sufficient time for members to travel back and resume legislative business effectively?
