One of the genius aspects of the United States Constitution is the emphasis on protecting individual liberty. The document protects liberty through separation of powers so power is not concentrated exclusively in any one branch. To fulfill the desires of the people, the process through which national legislation is introduced begins on the floor of either the U.S. House or the U.S. Senate. Today, we are talking about the process and procedures for legislation on the floor of the U.S. House. To walk us through this sometimes confusing process, we are delighted to welcome former Virginia Congressman Robert Hurt. Congressman Hurt served in Congress for 6 years and is the former Dean of the Helms School of Government of Liberty University.
