On July 2, 2025, the U.S. House of Representatives conducted a procedural vote on a technical change amendment that began at 2:07 p.m. ET and extended well beyond its scheduled five-minute duration. The vote, involving all 432 members, reached a tally of 220-212 but remained open for over seven hours and 30 minutes, officially becoming the longest vote in the history of the House. This surpassed the previous record of seven hours and 21 minutes set in 2021. The extended duration of the vote has drawn attention as an unprecedented event in modern congressional history.
