Two days after the resolution passed, for the first time the House passed by a voice vote legislation providing federal support for the arts and humanities. The clearest indication of the level of support for H.R. 9460, however, came prior to the voice vote when Robert P. Griffin (R-MI) made a motion to recommit the bill. Griffin’s motion failed on a vote of 128 to 151. After the Senate agreed with the House passed bill, it was sent to the White House where Johnson signed it into law on September 29.
