For: 343 / Against: 81

The House voted to bolster an existing statute that denies many types of federal aid to colleges and universities that ban military and ROTC recruiters from campus. A federal court ruling last year upheld the so-called Solomon Law but found that it fails to empower military recruiters to the extent claimed by the Pentagon. This bill (HR 3966) seeks to remedy that flaw. A yes vote was to pass the bill.
