On the Motion to Table No bill link is listed for this roll call in the source feed. Recorded outcome: Motion to Table Failed.

Why this matters

  • This is an official, on-the-record vote — it’s what members actually did, not a quote or a headline.
  • Roll-call questions are often procedural. We surface the underlying context so you can follow the legislative steps.
  • Some roll calls are about procedures or motions that don’t reference a bill directly in the data feed — they can still shape what happens next.
  • Tip: The official roll-call question text is usually the best clue to what rule or step was in play.
  • In the Senate, procedural votes can still matter a lot because they determine whether debate continues, ends, or moves to a final decision.
