Bill overview
This resolution proposes a change to the rules governing how members of the House of Representatives can be censured, disapproved, or removed from committee assignments. Currently, a simple majority vote is sufficient to take these actions. This bill would require a supermajority vote – at least 60% of those present and voting – to initiate these disciplinary measures. This change aims to increase the level of consensus needed before a member faces serious consequences within the House.
