CONGRESS FOR VOTERS

House Roll Call 10

119th Congress · Session 1 · January 14, 2025

A fast-track vote, needing two-thirds to pass

The House sets aside its normal procedure to move quickly: no amendments, little debate, and a two-thirds bar instead of a simple majority. It is used for measures expected to be uncontroversial, so a bill that fails here failed despite broad expectations that it would not.

What was being voted on

119-HR-153 — Post-Disaster Assistance Online Accountability Act

This bill establishes an online repository to track federal disaster assistance. The Director of the Office of Management and Budget will create a subpage on a specific federal website to publish required information. Covered federal agencies must submit details regarding disaster assistance every 30 days after a calendar quarter ends. This information includes the total amount of assistance provided and specific details about projects or activities funded. The act covers agencies providing assistance for specified natural disasters, including the Small Business Administration and HUD.
