CONGRESS FOR VOTERS

House Roll Call 173

119th Congress · Session 1 · June 23, 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-3394 — Fair Investment Opportunities for Professional Experts Act

This bill aims to amend the Securities Act of 1933. It focuses on updating and codifying the qualifications required to be considered an accredited investor. The bill introduces specific net worth thresholds and income requirements for natural persons. It also includes provisions for licensed professionals and those with specific expertise. Additionally, the Act mandates that the Securities and Exchange Commission revise current definitions to align with these changes.
