| Objecting to the United Nations Security Council Resolution Vote 2334 Concerning Israeli-Palestinian Peace - Vote Passed (342-80, 4 Present, 7 Not Voting) The House agreed to this resolution which would express the sense of the House that the adoption of United Nations Security Council Resolution 2334, which criticized Israel for its continued expansion of settlements in occupied territories, and which the United States abstained from vetoing in the Security Council, undermined the long-standing position of the United States to oppose and veto U.N. Security Council resolutions that seek to impose solutions to Israeli-Palestinian final status issues, or that are one-sided and anti-Israel. Rep. Mo Brooks voted YES Executive Regulations - Vote Passed (237-187, 9 Not Voting) The House passed a bill that would modify the federal rule-making process by preventing "major rules", those generally having an annual economic impact greater than $100 million, from being implemented unless Congress enacts legislation approving them. Rep. Mo Brooks voted YES Midnight Rules - Vote Passed (238-184, 11 Not Voting) The House passed legislation that would permit a new Congress to use the Congressional Review Act to disapprove, en bloc, multiple regulations issued by a president in his final year in office, rather than just a single regulation at a time for rules issued during the final 60 session days of the previous Congress. Rep. Mo Brooks voted YES | |
