About this vote

S. 2503 addresses aviation safety by increasing requirements for aircraft tracking and communication using Automatic Dependent Surveillance-Broadcast (ADS-B) technology and by expanding oversight. Suspending the rules is a fast-track procedure that limits debate and requires a two-thirds vote to pass. The bill fell short of the two-thirds needed, so it did not pass under this procedure.
