House Roll Call 39

119th Congress · Session 1 · February 11, 2025

The vote on whether to adopt the resolution

A resolution is one chamber speaking for itself — setting its own rules, taking a position, honouring someone — and it never goes to the President. Agreeing to it is the whole decision.

What was being voted on

119-HRES-122 — Providing for consideration of the bill (H.R. 77) to amend chapter 8 of title 5, United States Code, to provide for en bloc consideration in resolutions of disapproval for "midnight rules", and for other purposes.

H. Res. 122 sets the rules for considering a bill called H.R. 77 in the House of Representatives. This underlying bill deals with amending chapter 8 of title 5, United States Code, to allow for en bloc consideration in resolutions of disapproval for midnight rules. The resolution waives all points of order against the consideration of the bill and against its provisions. It orders the previous question on the bill and any amendments to final passage without intervening motion.
