CONGRESS FOR VOTERS

House Roll Call 16

119th Congress · Session 1 · January 16, 2025

A last attempt to send the bill back to committee

The minority party's final chance to change or stall a bill just before the vote on passage. It almost always fails; when it succeeds, the bill does not get its final vote that day.
