WASHINGTON (CNN) -- President Bush called Thursday for the Republican-led Congress to tackle key legislation in its final weeks.

The incoming House of Representatives, elected this week, will be led by Democrats, and the Senate may be as well.

The next few weeks will be "busy ones" for Congress, Bush said, calling on lawmakers to complete work on several bills, including the "terrorist surveillance act" -- the term the White House uses for legislation that would authorize the administration's warrantless surveillance program, which included wiretapping phone calls between people in the United States and suspected terrorists overseas.

The legislation has drawn objections from Democrats and Republicans. The other legislation Bush cited included federal spending bills, an agreement with India for civilian nuclear technology, and trade legislation.
