Today on the Hill

After a late night at the Capitol yesterday due to the State of the Union, the House of Representatives doesn't have much scheduled on the floor. They'll be convening for legislative business at 9am (note no "morning hour" today) and last votes are expected to be done by 11. According to Eric Cantor's office, the House will be considering.

• H.R. 658 - FAA Air Transportation Modernization and Safety Improvement Act 
• H.R. 3801 - To amend the Tariff Act of 1930 to clarify the definition of aircraft and the offenses penalized under the aviation smuggling provisions under that Act, and for other purposes (Suspension, 40 Minutes of Debate) (Sponsored by Rep. Gabrielle Giffords / Ways and Means Committee / Armed Services Committee) 
• Postponed Vote on H.R. 1022 - Buffalo Soldiers in the National Parks Study Act (Suspension) (Sponsored by Rep. Jackie Speier / Natural Resources Committee)

It's also worth noting that the Energy and Commerce Committee will be holding a hearing on the Keystone pipeline at tomorrow. The Republicans will be trying to create the impression that the pipeline is a job creating project as they've named the hearing "American Jobs Now: A Legislative Hearing on Keystone XL Pipeline Legislation." You see the full schedule of committee hearings below the fold.
