H.Res. 166 · 114th Congress
Amending the Rules of the House of Representatives to preclude the Committee on Rules from reporting a rule…
Full title
Amending the Rules of the House of Representatives to preclude the Committee on Rules from reporting a rule or order that would provide for the consideration of a bill or joint resolution with less than 10 hours of debate.
Key: what the circles and colors mean
Each circle is a bill. The ring fills as it moves through Congress:
Under the number: the Yea · Nay count of its final (or latest) recorded vote. On a member's page, the small badge is how that member voted: Y Yea / Aye, N Nay / No, P Present, – Not voting.
Gold and violet are only for Yea and Nay; they never mean a party. A member's party is the letter on their photo.
Never voted on. It didn't reach a floor vote before the 114th Congress ended, so it expired. A bill has to be introduced again to be considered in a new Congress.
No cosponsors.
Amends Rule XIII (Calendars and Committee Reports) of the Rules of the House of Representatives to prohibit the House Committee on Rules from reporting a rule or order that would provide less than 10 hours of debate (inclusive of debates on amendments).
