This was one of a series of votes generated by procedural moves of the Republican minority to protest the decision of the Democratic majority to limit the number of amendments that could be offered to H.R. 2847, the fiscal year 2010 appropriations for the multi-billion dollar Departments of Commerce and Justice and for federal science and other programs. Formally, this was a vote on an amendment offered by Rep. Schock (R-IL) to transfer $500,000 from the Bureau of the Census to the International Trade Administration for a study on the economic benefits of the U.S.-Columbia Free Trade Act. |
