As the 112th Congress returns to Washington for its second session, activities on Capitol Hill will be strongly influenced by the tension between legislative priorities and the politics of a Presidential and Congressional election year, magnified by the realities of divided government. This dynamic presents opportunities for both bipartisan cooperation as well as partisan gridlock on key policy initiatives.
