House Roll Call 29

119th Congress · Session 1 · February 4, 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-776 — Nutria Eradication and Control Reauthorization Act of 2025

This bill aims to reauthorize the Nutria Eradication and Control Act of 2003. The legislation specifically amends the year in Section 3(e) of the 2003 Act from "2025" to "2030". It also includes a technical correction regarding the placement of a single quotation mark in Section 3(a).
