RULE BILLS
**A rule bill is a bill passed through a full House vote under a rule that has been voted and agreed upon by the Rules Committee. Rule bills require a simple majority of the House to pass (218 votes) through a recorded vote.

Result and Date	Bill #	Bill Title	My Vote	What it means for you and your family
1/29/2020 PASSED 221-189	H.R. 3621	Comprehensive CREDIT Act of 2020	NO	While Republicans support measures to increase access to affordable consumer credit and the accuracy of consumer credit information, this bill would undermine the credit reporting system and make it more difficult and expensive for lenders to analyze the credit risk of borrowers.  As a result, Americans will find that credit will be less accessible, or not accessible at all, and ultimately more expensive.
1/30/2020 PASSED 228-175	House Amendment to Senate Amendment on H.R. 550	No War Against Iran Act	NO	These amendments dangerously limit the President’s ability to respond to threats against the US in a timely manner. By inserting these bills as an amendment to a Congressional Gold Medal, instead of considering them on their own merits, the Majority makes a mockery of the process.
1/30/2020 PASSED 236-166	House Amendment to Senate Amendment on H.R. 550	To repeal the Authorization for Use of Military Force Against Iraq Resolution of 2002	NO	These amendments dangerously limit the President’s ability to respond to threats against the US in a timely manner. By inserting these bills as an amendment to a Congressional Gold Medal, instead of considering them on their own merits, the Majority makes a mockery of the process.

SUSPENSION BILLS

**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.
