Providing for the consideration of the resolution (H. Res. 967) amending the Rules of the House of Representatives to permit Members to vote by proxy in certain cases, and for other purposes.

HRES 1115 is a procedural resolution that, if adopted, would allow the House of Representatives to immediately consider H.Res. 967 without amendments or points of order. H.Res. 967 is the substantive bill that would amend House rules to permit members to vote by proxy in specific circumstances, such as when they are unable to be present for a vote. The resolution limits debate to one hour equally divided between committee leaders and waives all objections to the consideration of H.Res. 967. This change would directly affect House members who are absent during votes but wish to cast a ballot.
