Motion to go to conference; Temporary Payroll Tax Cut Continuation Act of 2011 – Vote Passed (229-193, 11 Not Voting)

With this vote, the House rejected the Senate’s two-month extension of the Social Security payroll tax reduction and requested a conference to consider a yearlong extension. Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-NV) stated he would not call the Senate back into session. The standoff ended later in the week when the House agreed to pass the two-month bill and the Senate agreed to name conferees to work out a yearlong extension.
