CONGRESS FOR VOTERS

House Roll Call 125

119th Congress · Session 1 · May 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-2215 — Salem Maritime National Historical Park Redesignation and Boundary Study Act

This Act redesignates the Salem Maritime National Historic Site as the ``Salem Maritime National Historical Park.'' It updates all legal references, maps, and documents to reflect this new name. Additionally, the Secretary of the Interior is directed to conduct a boundary study. This study will evaluate the suitability of including specific sites and resources within the National Park System. The study area encompasses Salem, Massachusetts, and its vicinity, including the Salem Armory Visitor Center building and adjacent Salem Armory Park.
