This was a vote on a motion to recommit with instructions that would have increased funding for Pell Grants by $39 million. (Pell Grants provide federal financial aid to low-income college students.) A motion to recommit with instructions is the minority's opportunity to torpedo or significantly change a bill before a final up-or-down vote on the measure. This motion to recommit was offered to a continuing resolution funding the federal government through September 2011, and cutting $61 billion in federal funding for many government programs. |
