House Roll Call 304

119th Congress · Session 2 · September 15, 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-HR-2140 — Diesel Emissions Reduction Act of 2025

This bill amends the Energy Policy Act of 2005. The main purpose of the legislation is to reauthorize the diesel emissions reduction program.

The bill was passed by the House of Representatives on September 15, 2026, and was received and placed on the Senate calendar on September 16, 2026.
