Vote No. 318 (H.R. 2578)

Motion by Mr. Hastings of Florida to amend the rule to H.R. 2578 to make in order and provide the appropriate waivers for amendment #2, offered by Rep. King (IA), which would require the Corps of Engineers to increase the amount of flood storage capacity in the Missouri River's reservoir system so that it is sufficient to control the runoff associated with the largest flood experienced in the Missouri River. As of now, that is the historic flood of last year, 2011. Defeated: 3–7.
