In the U.S. House of Representatives, a quorum is required to conduct business and vote on bills. A quorum is defined as a majority of the members, which means at least 218 out of 435 members must be present. If a quorum is not present, the House cannot proceed with a vote on a bill. However, members can still debate or discuss the bill without a quorum present.
