About this vote

A motion to table sets an amendment aside without a direct vote on it. The amendment's description says it would protect the United States against efforts of China and other foreign entities to engage in economic espionage and misappropriate U.S. intellectual property, research and development, and innovation efforts. A Yes vote supports setting the amendment aside.
