CPSC on suspension, will be on House floor this afternoon
There are quite a few items on suspension today and a few may take some time. Suspension bills that are non-controversial get passed together in one big vote. Any member can demand a separate recorded vote. Suspension bills subjected to individual recorded votes cannot be amended, but do then need a two-thirds majority (since they are put on suspension with the presumption that they are non-controversial). House action updated regularly here. Look for HR 4040, the conference report on the CPSC Reform Act.
