About this vote

Ordering the previous question on a rule resolution cuts off debate and amendments and brings the resolution itself to a vote. The rule would set the terms for House consideration of H.R. 3438, a bill to postpone the effective date of high-impact rules pending judicial review, and H.R. 5719, the Empowering Employees Through Stock Ownership Act, a bill to modify the tax treatment of certain equity grants. The resolution also provides for consideration of motions to suspend the rules. A Yes vote moves ahead to the vote on the rule; a No vote keeps the resolution open to debate and amendment.
