House Roll Call 162

119th Congress · Session 2 · May 13, 2026

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-HRES-1252 — Resolution memorializing law enforcement officers killed in the line of duty.

This resolution serves to honor and remember law enforcement officers across the United States. It specifically acknowledges the 363 officers killed in the line of duty during 2025.
