Accomplishments of the Fifty-seventh Congress
The Fifty-seventh Congress is praised as hard working and influential in passing anti trust measures, creating the Commerce and Labor departments, enacting the Elkins bill on rebates, expediting suits against trusts, and establishing a national militia framework. It approved funds for the Philippines distress, Hawaii annexation, and a new bankruptcy law, while shelving tariff and some statehood efforts.
