Rule bills require a simple majority of the House to pass (218 votes) through a recorded vote.\nResult and Date\nBill #\nBill Title\nMy Vote\nWhat it means for you and your family\n9/25/2019\nPASSED\n321  103\nH.R. 1595\nSAFE Banking Act of 2019\nYES\nWhile I am concerned about the consequences of legalizing Marijuana, Washington has decided to move in this direction. Currently, Washington banks cannot take funds from the Marijuana industry, which means that cash has been piling up and creating dangerous situations. The safety of our community is one of my top priorities, which is why I voted to allow banks to stop the flow of cash onto our streets.\n9/25/2019\nPASSED\n230-194\nH.R. 2203\nHomeland Security Improvement Act\nNO\nThis legislation does not address the surge of illegal immigrants crossing our border and wastes taxpayer dollars by creating unneeded, duplicative oversight panels. It's clear that our immigration system is broken, but this legislation is certainly not the solution.\n9/25/2019\nPASSED\n421-0-2\nH.Res. 576\nExpressing the sense of the House of Representatives with respect to the whistleblower complaint of August 12, 2019, made to the Inspector General of the Intelligence Community\nYES\nOversight and investigation is one of the primary responsibilities of Congress. This legislation called for the delivery of the August 12th Whistleblower report to be delivered to Congress, enabling oversight.\n9/26/2019\nPASSED\n230-184\nH.R. 3525\nU.S. Border Patrol Medical Screening Standards Act\nNO\nThis legislation would require that the Department of Homeland Security establish an electronic health record database for illegal immigrants within 90 days of being signed into law. We should fulfill our promise of creating an electronic health database for our Veterans before we begin doing so for illegal immigrants.\n9/27/2019\nPASSED\n236-174\nS.J.Res. 54\nRelating to a national emergency declared by the President on February 15, 2019\nYES\nRead my full my statement on the resolution regarding the President's National Emergency.\nSUSPENSION BILLS\n**A suspension bill is a bill passed by the House through suspending the rules to move quickly, circumventing the House Rules Committee. Suspension bills are typically less controversial pieces of legislation, and as the rules are being suspended, they require a higher threshold, two-thirds of those voting in the House, to pass. Additionally, these bills are often passed by a voice vote, without a formal roll call vote.\nResult and Date\nBill #\nBill Title\nMy Vote\nWhat it means for you and your family\n9/24/19\nPASSED\nH.R. 2229\nFirst Responders Passport Act of 2019\nYES\nPassed by voice\n9/24/19\nPASSED\nH.R. 1632\nSoutheast Asia Strategy Act\nYES\nPassed by voice\n9/24/19\nPASSED\nH.R. 2327\nBurma Political Prisoners Assistance Act\nYES\nPassed by voice\n9/24/19\nPASSED\n394-21\nH.R. 3190\nBURMA Act of 2019\nYES\nThis legislation imposes sanctions on Burma for human rights abuses.\n9/24/19\nPASSED\nH.Res. 127\nExpressing the sense of the House of Representatives on the importance and vitality of the United States alliances with Japan and the Republic of Korea, and our trilateral cooperation in the pursuit of shared interests\nYES\nPassed by voice\n9/24/19\nPASSED\nH.Res. 444\nReaffirming the importance of the United States to promote the safety, health, and well-being of refugees and displaced persons\nYES\nPassed by voice\n9/26/19\nPASSED\nH.R. 2528\nSTEM Opportunities Act of 2019\nYES\nPassed by voice\n9/26/19\nPASSED\nH.R. 335\nSouth Florida Clean Coastal Waters Act of 2019\nYES\nPassed by voice\n9/26/19\nPASSED\nH.R. 3710\nCybersecurity Vulnerability Remediation Act\nYES\nPassed by voice\n9/26/19\nPASSED\nH.R. 2589\nUnifying DHS Intelligence Enterprise Act\nYES\nPassed by voice\n9/26/19\nPASSED\nH.R. 3691\nTRANSLATE Act\nYES\nPassed by voice\n9/26/19\nPASSED\nH.R. 3675\nTrusted Traveler Reconsideration and Restoration Act of 2019\nYES\nPassed by voice\n9/26/19\nPASSED\nH.R. 3694\nHelping Families Fly Act of 2019\nYES\nPassed by voice\n9/26/19\nPASSED\nH.R. 3246\nTraveling Parents Screening Consistency Act of 2019\nYES\nPassed by voice\n9/26/19\nPASSED\nH.R. 3526\nCounter Terrorist Network Act\nYES\nPassed by voice\n9/26/19\nPASSED\nH.R. 3106\nDomestic and International Terrorism DATA Act\nYES\nPassed by voice\n 2019 PAST VOTES:", 1, "2026-03-30T12:14:52Z", "2026-03-30T12:14:52Z"]], "columns": ["url", "title", "date", "year", "month", "party", "chamber", "state", "member_name", "bioguide_id", "domain", "scraper", "source", "date_source", "text", "has_text", "collected_at", "updated_at"], "primary_keys": ["url"], "primary_key_values": ["https://mcmorris.house.gov/my-votes-week-of-september-23/"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 1.2020240537822247, "source": "dwillis/congress-press", "source_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press", "license": "MIT", "license_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press/blob/main/LICENSE"}
