Aides to House and Senate conferees met on Aug. 10 to discuss general matters and try to resolve outstanding issues. It was reported that participants reviewed a side-by-side comparison of the bills that had been prepared by House Judiciary Chairman James Sensenbrenner’s (R-Wis.) staff, but no other information was made available. Sensenbrenner will chair the conference committee.
