The Conference House is a National Historic Landmark and New York City Landmark. It is owned by the City of New York, operated by the Conference House Association as a house museum, and is a member of the Historic House Trust of New York City.
In most legislative bodies, including Congress a conference committee occurs when each house has passed their version of a particular bill. The committee of conference is convened to come up with a compromise that both houses can agree on and approve. In most legislative bodies the conference committee is limited to issues in the original bills, they can't add language on other issues since the entire legislative body hasn't considered it.
