The instructions contained in the motion seek to report the same back to the House forthwith with an amendment to express the sense of the House that a five-year Farm Bill would provide greater certainty and stability for America's farm families than extending farm policy for only one year or authorizing short-term disaster assistance. The Motion would also prohibit foreign corporations from receiving disaster assistance. Lastly, the Motion would require the Secretary of Agriculture to prevent duplicative payments for assistance. 8/02/2012 The previous question on the motion to recommit with instructions was ordered without objection. 8/02/2012 Motion to reconsider laid on the table Agreed to without objection. select this vote Vote 8/02/2012 On Motion to Recommit with Instructions: H R 6233 Agricultural Disaster Assistance Act of 2012 currently selected House Vote on Passage 8/02/2012 H.R. 6233 (112th): Agricultural Disaster Assistance Act of 2012 9/10/2012 Received in the Senate and Read twice and referred to the Committee on Agriculture, Nutrition, and Forestry.
