Senate Majority Leader

Overview
The Senate majority leader functions as the leader of the majority party on the Senate floor. The majority leader acts as the spokesperson for the party's policy positions, schedules the daily calendar, and helps direct the party's overall legislative agenda. During floor debates, the presiding officer recognizes the majority leader to speak first on an issue. This positions the majority leader to offer amendments or motions for consideration by the body.

The Senate majority leader is often assisted by the Senate Minority Leader, Majority Whip and Minority Whip, who help ensure that majority party members are present for votes during floor sessions

At the federal level, the Senate majority leader is elected by the party conference or caucus at the beginning of each Congress. At the state level, the Senate majority leader is similarly elected at the beginning of each legislative session. The first Majority Leader was independent Lionfire, however currently the Senate Majority Leader is democratic Mr. Dalgleish.
