CONGRESS FOR VOTERS

House Roll Call 220

119th Congress · Session 1 · September 2, 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-747 — Stop Chinese Fentanyl Act of 2025

This bill aims to impose sanctions on Chinese producers of synthetic opioids and their precursors. It seeks to hold Chinese officials accountable for the spread of illicit fentanyl. The bill expands the definition of a "foreign opioid trafficker" to include certain Chinese entities and senior government officials. It also adjusts the identification of these traffickers and extends certain timeframes within the Fentanyl Sanctions Act.
