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. 6398, the RED Tape Act, removes the Clean Air Act requirement that the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) review and comment on newly authorized federal construction projects and other major federal agency actions that already require review under the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA), and on proposed federal regulations. The motion failed, so the bill was not sent back to committee.
