H.R. 1119: SENSE Act
This was a vote to pass H.R. 1119 (115th) in the House.
H.R. 1119 addresses the application of the Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA) rule, the Mercury and Air Toxics Standards, issued pursuant to section 112 of the Clean Air Act, to electric generating units that utilize coal refuse to generate electricity. The bill would provide for limited modifications with respect to the Mercury and Air Toxics Rule for these coal refuse facilities by providing for alternative compliance options with respect to sulfur dioxide and hydrogen chloride emissions standards.
According to the House Committee on Energy and Commerce, this legislation seeks to ensure that facilities that use coal refuse as fuel can continue to operate and will not be forced to shut down, due to unachievable requirements included in the Environmental Protection Agency’s Mercury and Air Toxics Standards (MATS). Coal refuse is the aboveground waste product of coal mining found near many abandoned mines. Coal refuse piles pose a number of environmental and safety threats and create significant costs for government and industry.
Coal refuse-to-energy facilities are specialized power plants developed to recycle the coal refuse by using it as an energy source to generate electricity. There are 19 coal refuse-to-energy facilities, including 14 in Pennsylvania. In addition to creating an estimated 3,600 jobs, many of which are in economically distressed communities, these facilities create an average of $26 million per year in environmental value for the State of Pennsylvania alone.
Some have suggested that coal refuse-to-energy facilities can meet the requirements of the MATS rule, citing the District of Columbia Court of Appeals decision in White Stallion v. Environmental Protection Agency. In that case, the agency had the authority to create a separate subcategory for coal refuse plants, but declined to do so in part because there were some such plants that could achieve the HCL and SO2 standards in the MATS rule. Notwithstanding the court’s holding that EPA had acted within its discretion, Mr. Vincent Brisini testified earlier this year on behalf of the Anthracite Region Independent Power Producers Association (ARIPPA) at the Subcommittee on Energy’s September 13, 2017 hearing that a number of bituminous coal refuse fired units cannot meet the MATS rule’s acid gas limits and face a threat of imminent closure absent passage of H.R. 1119.

Vote Details
“Aye” and “Yea” mean the same thing, and so do “No” and “Nay”. Congress uses different words in different sorts of votes.
The U.S. Constitution says that bills should be decided on by the “yeas and nays” (Article I, Section 7). Congress takes this literally and uses “yea” and “nay” when voting on the final passage of bills.
All Senate votes use these words. But the House of Representatives uses “Aye” and “No” in other sorts of votes.

Not all votes are meant to pass legislation. In the Senate some votes are not about legislation at all, since the Senate must vote to confirm presidential nominations to certain federal positions.
This vote is related to a bill. However, that doesn’t necessarily tell you what it is about. Congress makes many decisions in the process of passing legislation, such as on the procedures for debating the bill, whether to change the bill before voting on passage, and even whether to vote on passage at all.
You can learn more about the various motions used in Congress at EveryCRSReport.com. If you aren’t sure what the House was voting on, try seeing if it’s on this list.
Take a look at where this bill is in the legislative process. What might come next? Keep in mind what this specific vote was on, and the context of the bill. Will there be amendments? Will the other chamber of Congress vote on it, or let it die?
For this question it may help to briefly examine the bill itself.
What is your analysis of this vote?
- What trends do you see in this vote?
- How did your representative vote?
Members of Congress side together for many reasons beside being in the same political party, especially so for less prominent legislation or legislation specific to a certain region. What might have determined how the roll call came out in this case? Does it look like Members of Congress voted based on party, geography, or some other reason?
One tool that will be helpful in answering this question is the cartogram at the top of the page. A cartogram is a stylized map of the United States that shows each district as an identical hexagon. This view allows you to see the how the representatives from each district voted arranged by their geography and colored by their political party. What trends can you see in the cartogram for this vote?
There is one vote here that should be more important to you than all the others. These are the votes cast by your representative, which is meant to represent you and your community. Do you agree with how your representative voted? Why do you think they voted the way they did?
If you don’t already know who your Members of Congress are you can find them by entering your address here.
