    Roll call for this vote if you want to see how your representative voted and perhaps give them some feedback.

    EDIT: The Clerk’s website went down earlier. When it came back up, it looks like they’re returning the wrong results. The vote to table the impeachment resolution was roll call #175, the number you see in the URL. It looks like it’s now displaying the results for roll call #178 on the page, a vote to adjourn. I’ve updated the link to an alternate view that seems to be returning the results for the correct vote, but please check the title of page in case this gets broken again.

      Service unavailable on my end. I assume due to high demand, not censorship. I hope so at least.

        What exactly do you think the impeachment inquiry will accomplish with a Republican house and senate majority?

          The same thing democrats accomplished when they had majorities in both houses. Keeping excuse makers busy.

        That’s confusing, given all Republicans voted Nay.

          Alternative link corroborating the original article: https://www.govtrack.us/congress/votes/119-2025/h175

          I’m not sure what’s going on with the first link, but that website is impossible to navigate for me.

        I see her down in the O’s with a Nay vote. (Which, confusingly, is a vote in favor of impeachment, as the vote was to table the motion.)

          Edit: I’ve removed the screenshot because the page is currently showing the wrong vote.

          It seems like either they changed the page, or everyone is having trouble reading it (or maybe I am?). Here’s AOC’s vote on that page, listed as “Yea” for “motion to adjourn”.

          The “Nay” vote is listed as winning, but everything about this feels backward, so I’m not sure what to make of it.

            They’re no longer serving up the correct vote. The vote to table the impeachment was roll call #175, you can see the number in the URL. It looks like they’re now showing the votes for roll call #178, a vote to adjourn.

            EDIT: this link seems to be working better https://clerk.house.gov/evs/2025/roll175.xml

            This was a vote to table. A no vote is a vote for impeachment, or at least continue the process toward it.

            no, the vote was whether to ignore the impeachment, so “no” is the correct vote here

                Not sure what’s going on with that website–maybe it going down earlier messed things up? Here’s another (much easier to read) source which corroborates the original article: https://www.govtrack.us/congress/votes/119-2025/h175
