Motion by Rep. Fischbach to amend the rule to H.R. 1280 to make in order amendment #7, offered by Rep. Zeldin (NY), which creates a "bill of rights" for law enforcement and encourages states to adopt these measures as well as create a minimum standard to protect a police officer’s inherent right to self-defense and protection from harassment. Additionally, the amendment recognizes the bravery of law enforcement and encourages dialogue between law enforcement and their respective communities to improve public safety. Defeated: 4–7
