S.Res. 88 · 118th Congress
Make Rules Matter Resolution
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 118th Congress ended, so it expired. A bill has to be introduced again to be considered in a new Congress.
No cosponsors.
This resolution modifies the requirements for raising and waiving several budget points of order that apply to legislation in the Senate. Among other modifications, the resolution requires an affirmative vote of two-thirds of the Senate to waive certain budget points of order.
