CONGRESS FOR VOTERS

House Roll Call 316

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-HR-1676 — Make SWAPs Efficient Act of 2025

This bill seeks to amend the Pittman-Robertson Wildlife Restoration Act. It focuses on changing how the Secretary of the Interior approves state wildlife conservation and restoration programs. The legislation establishes a specific timeframe for the Secretary to approve these comprehensive plans. It also introduces conditional authorization for states once a plan is submitted. Finally, it requires a report to Congress if the approval process is not completed within the designated time.
