The vote is expected to occur after the House votes on the new proposed rules package. For the legislation to be adopted, it would need to pass the Democrat-controlled Senate and be signed by President Biden.

House Majority Leader Steve Scalise said the House also plans to vote this week on a bill to form a committee on "the weaponization of the federal government against citizens" and legislation that would end oil sales to China from the Strategic Petroleum Reserve (SPR).
