Thank you for the list. But what does "On Motion to Suspend the Rules and Pass" mean?

On motion to suspend the rules and pass the bill Failed by the Yeas and Nays: (2/3 required): 225 - 182 (Roll no. 559).

It just the way things are worded. A motion was made to suspend the rules, they do this all the time. Who knows what rule they wanted to suspend.
