CONGRESS FOR VOTERS

House Roll Call 279

119th Congress · Session 2 · July 22, 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-7008 — Stop Insider Trading Act

This bill places strict purchasing limits and transparency rules on stock trading for Members of Congress, their spouses, and their dependent children. It stops covered individuals from buying new covered investments while in federal service and requires advanced public notice before selling any. Additionally, the bill requires voters in federal elections to provide a valid physical photo identification or an approved alternative. States must make digital imaging devices available for free at public buildings so people can copy their photo identification.
