A "vote-a-rama" (or "vote-arama", "vote-athon") is a procedure in the United States Senate that allows senators to propose an unlimited number of amendments to budget-related measures. After brief debate, the amendments are each voted on in rapid succession. Vote-a-ramas have been a fixture of Senate budget and reconciliation bills since the 1990s. They are primarily a political messaging tool, as they allow individual senators to force votes on divisive or controversial amendments that would not ordinarily be allowed by the majority leader.

Después de un breve debate, cada una de las enmiendas se votan sucesivamente. El voto-a-ramas ha sido un elemento fijo del presupuesto del Senado y los proyectos de ley de reconciliación desde la década de 1990. Principalmente, es una herramienta de mensajería política, ya que permiten a los senadores individuales forzar votos sobre enmiendas polémicas o divisivas que normalmente no permitiría el líder de la mayoría.
