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.
- When a roll call is tied to a bill, it can move legislation forward, block it, or set up the next action (like final passage, cloture, or adoption of an amendment).
- Tip: The official roll-call question text is usually the best clue to what rule or step was in play.
