CONGRESS FOR VOTERS

House Roll Call 315

119th Congress · Session 1 · December 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-S-356 — Secure Rural Schools Reauthorization Act of 2025

This bill aims to extend the Secure Rural Schools and Community Self-Determination Act of 2000. It extends various deadlines and years within the original act, such as changing certain dates from 2023 to 2026. The legislation includes rules for payments to States and counties for fiscal years 2024 and 2025 to prevent double payments if funds were already distributed. It also extends the authority to conduct special projects on federal land and the authority to expend county funds. Additionally, the bill extends the Resource Advisory Committee pilot program.
