CONGRESS FOR VOTERS

House Roll Call 45

119th Congress · Session 1 · February 24, 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-818 — SPUR Act

This bill aims to amend the Small Business Act. It seeks to change the requirements for the federal agency scorecard program. Specifically, it adds requirements to track the number of new small business entrants receiving prime contracts. This includes specific groups such as service-disabled veterans, qualified HUBZone concerns, socially and economically disadvantaged individuals, and women-owned businesses. The bill also requires a comparison to the number of prime contracts awarded in the prior fiscal year.
