Waiving two-thirds vote rule for budget bills
Sponsored by Virginia Foxx
What the bill does
This resolution waives a House rule that normally requires a two-thirds vote to consider a rule from the Rules Committee on the same day it is reported. The waiver applies only to resolutions reported through June 5, 2026, that relate to a budget reconciliation bill.
The stakes
This resolution makes it easier for the House to quickly consider a budget reconciliation bill, which can pass the Senate with a simple majority. The stakes involve whether the majority party can fast-track major spending or tax changes without the usual procedural delays.
