such as the expedited procedures in trade legislation.

wikipedia: United States Senate Committee on Foreign Relations
jurisdiction: The Senate Committee on Foreign Relations was established in 1816
as one of the original ten standing committees of the Senate. Throughout its history,
the committee has been instrumental in developing and influencing United States
foreign policy, at different times supporting and opposing the policies of presidents
and secretaries of state. The committee has considered, debated, and reported
important treaties and legislation, ranging from the purchase of Alaska in 1867
to the establishment of the United Nations in 1945. It also holds jurisdiction
over all diplomatic nominations. Through these powers, the committee has helped
shape foreign policy of broad significance, in matters of war and peace and international
relations. Members of the committee have assisted in the negotiation of treaties,
and at times have helped to defeat treaties they felt were not in the national
interest.
