YourVoice.Now Summary
The Senate told the House it picked Charles Grassley to lead its sessions — no new law, no money.
The details
Nothing here changes your daily life. On January 3, 2025, the Senate chose Senator Charles E. Grassley to be its President pro tempore. This resolution is how the Senate told the House about that choice. It spends no money, sets no rules, and changes no law. The President pro tempore runs Senate sessions when the Vice President is away. The Constitution calls for the job. Today it usually goes to the longest-serving senator in the majority party. That officer is also third in line for the presidency, behind the Vice President and the Speaker of the House.
