House Roll Call 159

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-481 — Condemning the rise in ideologically motivated attacks on Jewish individuals in the United States, including the recent violent assault in Boulder, Colorado, and reaffirming the House of Representatives commitment to combating antisemitism and politically motivated violence.

This resolution was introduced in response to several violent incidents targeting Jewish individuals and institutions. It addresses a June 1, 2025, attack in Boulder, Colorado, as well as fatal shootings in Washington, DC, and an arson attempt at the Pennsylvania Governor's Residence. The House of Representatives uses this text to condemn these specific acts of terrorism and ideologically motivated violence. It recognizes a pattern of aggression directed at Jewish people across the country.
