A congressional committee is a legislative sub-organization in the United States Congress that handles a specific duty (rather than the general duties of Congress). Committee membership enables members to develop specialized knowledge of the matters under their jurisdiction. As "little legislatures", the committees monitor ongoing governmental operations, identify issues suitable for legislative review, gather and evaluate information, and recommend courses of action to their parent body. Woodrow Wilson once wrote, "it is not far from the truth to say that Congress in session is Congress on public exhibition, whilst Congress in its committee rooms is Congress at work." It is not expected that a member of Congress be an expert on all matters and subject areas that come before Congress. Cong

rdfs:comment	Una comissió del Congrés és una suborganització legislativa del Congrés dels Estats Units que s'ocupa d'una tasca en qüestió (en lloc d'encarregar-se de les tasques genèriques del Congrés). Els membres d'una comissió adquireixen coneixements especialitzats dels temes sota la seva jurisdicció. Com a «petites assemblees» que són, les comissions supervisen les operacions del govern, identifiquen àmbits que podrien necessitar revisió legislativa, reuneixen i avaluen informacions i emeten recomanacions al Congrés. (ca) Komisje Kongresu Stanów Zjednoczonych (ang. United States Congressional Committees) – komisje amerykańskiego parlamentu, element tworzenia amerykańskiego prawa i polityki państwa. (pl) 国会委员会（英語：Congressional Committee）是美国国会内负责特定职责（而并非国会一般职责）的立法子机构。委员会成员资格可以使当选委员对其管辖事项有专业的了解。作为“小立法机关”，委员会对政府的日常运作进行监控，确定适合立法审查的问题，收集和评估信息，并向上级机构推荐行动方案。伍德罗·威尔逊曾写过，“可以说，开会中的国会是用于对外展示的，而在委员会会议室的国会才是工作中的国会。” 人们并不期待国会议员成为国会内所有事项或议题所涉领域内的专家。国会委员会通过调查和报告专门课题为国会提供有价值的信息服务。 (zh) Ein Kongressausschuss (Congressional Committee) ist innerhalb des politischen Systems der Vereinigten Staaten eine Untereinheit des Kongresses, die sich mit einem bestimmten Sachbereich beschäftigt. Im Repräsentantenhaus spielen die Ausschüsse aufgrund der Größe der Kammer eine stärkere Rolle (das Repräsentantenhaus hat 435 Abgeordnete, während der Senat nur aus 100 Senatoren besteht).
