HRES 1510 United States House · 117th Congress

Providing for consideration of the Senate amendment to the bill (H.R. 8404) to repeal the Defense of Marriage Act and ensure respect for State regulation of marriage, and for other purposes.

HRES 1510 is a procedural resolution that sets the rules for the House of Representatives to vote on the Senate's amendment to H.R. 8404, the bill that would repeal the Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA). DOMA was the federal law defining marriage as between one man and one woman for federal benefits and recognition. This resolution allows the House to consider concurring with the Senate amendment without procedural objections, with one hour of debate equally divided between parties. It does not change marriage law but enables the legislative process to advance the repeal bill.
