Hey, What's Congress Up to Today?

Via CQ's always helpful "Today at a Glance" ($), a laugh-so-you-don't-cry peek into today's agenda:

The House… could clear a bill that would require the Federal Emergency Management Agency to ensure that state and local emergency preparedness plans include procedures for evacuating pets and service animals.

The Senate takes up House-passed legislation that calls for 700 miles of fencing along the U.S.-Mexican border.

House International Relations holds a hearing on the situation in Sudan, with actress Mira Sorvino testifying.
