Simply follow the easy steps listed below to look up a vote cast by any member of Congress. You may want to read all of the steps or print this page before beginning your search. Step 1 Please visit the Legislation and Votes Web page at the Clerk of the House Web site. The following Web page will display: Under the "Roll Call Votes" heading, choose the link of the appropriate Congress and Session to view roll call votes for that session. You also have the option of viewing roll call votes from past sessions of Congress. Step 2 Once you have selected the Congress and Session you want, the following Web page will display: The far left column labeled "Roll" will give you the number of the roll call vote. Moving to the column on the right, you see the date the vote was cast. The "Question" tells you if the vote was on final passage, on an amendment, or as otherwise noted. The "Result" is the outcome: P=passed, F=failed, and A=the amendment was agreed to. The next column tells you the title/description of the measure. All votes are posted in reverse chronological order (most recent at the top). Step 3 Click on the appropriate "Roll" number on the same row as the title/description that you are interested in. If it is an older vote that you are interested in (must be in the same year), move to the bottom of the screen and simply click on a previous set of roll call votes. Step 4 The following Web page will display. Look for Rep. Quigley or any other Member of Congress to see how he or she voted on the measure. |
