On Motion to Recommit
On September 21, 2021, the House of Representatives voted on a "Motion to Recommit" regarding H.R. 5305, a bill designed to provide temporary government funding to prevent a shutdown and deliver emergency disaster assistance. A Motion to Recommit is a procedural move typically used by the minority party to send a bill back to committee for specific changes or to offer an alternative version before a final vote. The motion failed with a vote of 209 to 215, meaning the bill proceeded to a final vote without the proposed changes. The vote followed strict party lines: all 209 "Yea" votes came from Republicans, while 214 of the 215 "Nay" votes came from Democrats. Because the motion did not pass, the underlying bill—which aimed to keep federal agencies operating and provide relief for recent natural disasters—continued through the legislative process as originally drafted.
