Yesterday, the House continued consideration of HR 4820, the Transportation, Housing and Urban Development, and Related Agencies (THUD) Appropriations Act, 2024. Thirty-three amendments were considered and 21 of those were adopted. None of the amendments were of specific interest here. Of the five amendments initially considered on Monday, but held over for votes yesterday, only one passed.
The expected final vote on the bill was not held. The
Hill.com is
reporting that the vote was postponed because a number of Republican members
from New York objected to the reduction in spending for Amtrak included in the
bill. There were apparently concerns that there might not be enough votes to
pass the bill because of that opposition. The House is not scheduled
to resume consideration of the bill today.
