CONGRESS FOR VOTERS

House Roll Call 21

119th Congress · Session 2 · January 13, 2026

A last attempt to send the bill back to committee

The minority party's final chance to change or stall a bill just before the vote on passage. It almost always fails; when it succeeds, the bill does not get its final vote that day.

What was being voted on

119-HR-2312 — Tipped Employee Protection Act

It changes how tips and cash wages are factored into a work period determined by the employer. The bill was introduced in the House of Representatives by Mr. Womack and has additional sponsors. It was reported with an amendment and ordered to be printed.
