    I just read in:
    http://thomas.loc.gov/cgi-bin/bdquery/z?d1...09:HR00003:mad:@@X

    that:

    Motion to proceed to consideration of measure made in Senate. (consideration: CR S4157)
    4/22/2005:
    Cloture motion on the motion to proceed to the measure presented in Senate.
    4/25/2005:

    4/26/2005:
    Motion to proceed to measure considered in Senate by Unanimous Consent. (consideration: CR S4230-4235, S4236-4237, S4237-4252)
    4/26/2005:
    Cloture on motion to proceed to consideration of measure invoked in Senate by Yea-Nay Vote. 94 - 6. Record Vote Number: 110. (consideration: CR S4235; text: CR S4235)
    4/26/2005:
    Motion to proceed to consideration of measure agreed to in Senate by Unanimous Consent.
    4/27/2005:
    Considered by Senate. (consideration: CR S4370-4377, S4380-4384)
    4/28/2005:
    Considered by Senate.


    Anyone know what that means when a bill is "Considered" by the Senate? Maybe they debated it but didn't yet vote?

    It means they are asking Ford and GM how soon they will have hybrids that qualify. Also can mean they are checking their bank accounts for recent deposits.
