Senate Roll Call 84

119th Congress · Session 1 · February 21, 2025

A vote on a proposed change to the bill

A vote on one change, not on the bill. A bill can collect dozens of these, and losing one does not stop it.

What was being voted on

119-SAMDT-957 — To strike reconciliation instructions requiring damaging cuts to programs critical to rural Americans and food assistance for American families.

As an analyst keeping an eye out for the people, let's look at what this paperwork actually does. This amendment was submitted by Mr. Luján, along with Ms. Klobuchar, for the congressional budget resolution. Purpose and Changes The entire purpose of this amendment is to strike section 2002(a) from the text. That is all the text tells us it aims to change. It simply removes that specific section, and we cannot guess why or what the broader impacts are without stepping outside the provided facts.

The Senate recorded this as
On the Amendment S.Amdt. 957 to S.Con.Res. 7 (No short title on file)
To strike reconciliation instructions requiring damaging cuts to programs critical to rural Americans and food assistance for American families.
