House Roll Call 158

119th Congress · Session 1 · June 9, 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-HRES-488 — Denouncing the antisemitic terrorist attack in Boulder, Colorado.

This resolution addresses a terrorist attack committed by Mohammed Sabry Soliman in Boulder, Colorado. The text states that Soliman, an Egyptian national, used Molotov cocktails against peaceful demonstrators. The resolution notes that the attack wounded at least 14 people and highlights that the individual was in the country illegally after failing to depart following his visa expiration. It emphasizes the need for aggressive vetting of visa applicants to identify those who support antisemitic terrorism.
