Khanna vote tracker: no House votes October 5–11, and the September bills are still waiting
Ro Khanna cast no House votes from October 5 to 11, 2026 — the third straight vote-free week — and nothing the House passed in September changed status while both chambers stayed out for the midterms.
Ro Khanna cast zero recorded House votes in the seven days from October 5 through October 11, 2026. The House held no roll calls in that window, and the newest vote on the chamber's record is still Roll Call 314, taken on September 16. 12
That makes three vote-free weeks in a row. The House stopped voting on September 16, and its next votes are expected Monday, November 9. 3
This tracker counts recorded votes cast on the House floor. Senate votes, committee work and off-floor activity sit outside that count, and this issue reports them separately where they touch a tracked group.
The Senate is out too
The Senate is not voting either. Its newest recorded vote is Roll Call 256, taken on September 30, and no roll call has followed it since. 45
Both chambers return the week of November 9, after the November 3 midterm elections. 3
So no floor vote this week produced a gain or a loss for any of the five tracked groups. The question that still has an answer is whether anything the House passed in September changed while it was out.
The September bills are still waiting
Nothing moved. Between October 5 and 11, no measure awaiting action became law, went to the President, or came up on the Senate floor. Each one sits where it sat seven days ago. 67
- S. 2403, the Retire through Ownership Act, is the last bill the House voted on, on September 16, and it is with the President. 6
- H.R. 9497, the Water Resources Development Act, passed the House on September 16 and waits in the Senate. 7
- H.R. 10326, the PROOF Act, would require states to hand the Justice Department the data it needs to investigate fraud in Medicaid, SNAP and unemployment insurance. It passed on September 16 and waits in the Senate. 8
- H.R. 9576, the National Fraud Enforcement Division Act, would give statutory footing to the Justice Department's new fraud enforcement division. It passed on September 16 and waits in the Senate. 9
- H.R. 9500, the Tax Relief for Fraud Victims Act, passed on September 15 and waits in the Senate. 10
- H.J.Res. 210 and H.J.Res. 213 would cancel the federal decisions behind two California clean-air rules for vessels. Both passed the House in September and wait in the Senate. 1112
One pending measure is a separate case. H.R. 9340, the Ratepayer Protection Act, would set a federal standard for who pays the cost of the grid upgrades that serve large computing campuses. It is provisionally dead after its Senate cloture vote failed 57–43 on September 30. 13
What the blank week means for each group
Because nothing changed status, no group's scoreboard moved this week either. The table below gives each group its standing question: what is still waiting, and when it can next move. 3
| Group | What changed this week | What is still waiting, and when it can move |
|---|---|---|
| Tech workers | Nothing on the floor. The House's September slate held no bill aimed at technology work, and this week's tech-adjacent action came from Khanna's China committee, reported below. | Any bill the Senate takes up after November 9. 3 |
| Immigrants | Nothing. No rule on status, visas or benefit eligibility reached either floor. | H.R. 10326, the PROOF Act, would open state Medicaid, SNAP and unemployment data to federal fraud investigators, and it sits in the Senate. H.R. 5334, the Russia and Iran sanctions act, is already law, and its visa and inadmissibility provisions are in force. 814 |
| Healthcare recipients | Nothing new. The rule setting the Affordable Care Act's 2027 benefit and payment parameters has stood since the Senate rejected the challenge to it on September 30. | December 11 is the next deadline that matters. The stopgap funding law expires that day, along with certain veterans' health-care extenders and the farm bill provisions that pay for food aid. 15 |
| California voters | Nothing on the floor. The week's California item was a letter on electricity transmission, reported below. | H.J.Res. 210 and H.J.Res. 213, which would cancel federal decisions behind two California vessel clean-air rules, and H.R. 9497, the water resources bill, all wait in the Senate. 71112 |
| AI founders | Nothing. The grid bill that would have set who pays for a computing campus's power upgrades is dead in the Senate. | H.R. 9340 can be retried after November 9, and Khanna's letter on the grid is reported below. 13 |
Khanna off the House floor
With no floor votes, Khanna's week ran through a factory town in Ohio, a brokerage report, an electricity fight and the campaign trail.
On October 6, Khanna and four Democratic colleagues sent Energy Secretary Chris Wright a letter about the Energy Department's August 12 decision to abandon three proposed National Interest Electric Transmission Corridors. The letter became public on October 7. It asks how the cancellations square with the department's own July 2026 draft transmission study, which named data centers among the loads driving the need for more transmission capacity, and it requests answers by October 26. 16
- California voters: Two of the four signers, Scott Peters and Mike Levin, represent California districts. The letter argues that transmission bottlenecks raise wholesale power costs, and that those costs reach households as higher electricity bills. 16
- AI founders: The department's own study names data centers as one driver of transmission demand. A cancelled corridor leaves a slower path to the power a computing campus needs. 16
On October 7, the China committee published a bipartisan investigation into Webull Financial, the stock brokerage. The report, written with Chairman John Moolenaar, found that Webull keeps American investors' data on servers in China and is controlled through an opaque China-linked ownership structure. Webull's shares fell about 18% that day. 1718
On October 6, Khanna convened a roundtable in Dayton, Ohio, with former workers at Fuyao Glass America, the Chinese-owned auto-glass maker that took over a former General Motors plant outside the city. His committee opened an inquiry into the company in July, and he traveled to hear the workers after it declined to answer. 19
Also on October 6, Khanna introduced the Campus Accountability and Safety Act, H.R. 10761, with Rep. Brian Fitzpatrick and, in the Senate, Senators Kirsten Gillibrand and Chuck Grassley. The bill would standardize how colleges investigate and report campus sexual assault and would set new notification requirements for survivors and accused students. It reaches none of this tracker's five groups, and it now sits in committee. 2021
On October 9, Khanna's committee announced a four-day tour of the American South, running from October 12 to 15, to meet manufacturing workers and local leaders about competing with China. 22
On October 11, Khanna headlined a Democratic dinner in Des Moines, Iowa, and campaigned with Iowa candidates ahead of the November 3 midterms. 23
The bottom line
Khanna has nothing to vote on until November 9, and nothing he voted on in September has changed status in the past week. The only legislation he filed this week was a campus-safety bill that reaches none of the five tracked groups. For readers who follow a group, the week's movement ran through his committee instead: the grid case for California voters and AI founders, and the brokerage report for tech workers. The next floor votes in either chamber come after the November 3 election, in the week of November 9.
