House Passes Anti-Socialism Resolution 220-192 As Nearly All Democrats Vote No

Every voting Republican, 211 of them, plus one independent backed it, while eight Democrats crossed over and two voted present.

  • Roll Call 289 on Sept. 1, 2026: H.Res. 1490 passed the House 220 to 192.
  • The resolution condemns socialism in all its forms, per the bill's official title.
  • Republicans voted 211-0 in favor; 18 House members, mostly Democrats, did not vote.

Why it matters: A resolution binds no one; only the roll call does, and each name on it is now permanent.
