Majority leader: Difference between revisions - Wikipedia

Line 8:

In the federal Congress, the role of the [[Majority Leader of the United States House of Representatives]] and the [[Majority Leader of the United States Senate]] differ slightly. In the [[United States Senate]], the majority leader is the chief spokesperson for the majority party,<ref name="legal"/> as the president of the Senate is also the [[Vice-President of the United States]], and the [[President pro tempore of the United States Senate|President pro tempore]], though technically a substitute for the president of the Senate, is in reality a largely ceremonial position.

In the states, the majority leader of a state legislative chamber usually performs a similar role to the [[Majority Leader of the United States House of Representatives]].
