About this vote

A motion to recommit sends a bill back to committee and is usually the minority's last chance to change it before the final vote. H.R. 556 bars the Fish and Wildlife Service, the Bureau of Land Management, and the Forest Service from prohibiting or regulating the use of lead ammunition or fishing tackle on federal land or water. The motion failed, so the bill was not sent back to committee.
