Nine House Republicans bucked leadership on Tuesday and joined all Democrats in voting against a procedural hurdle to kill a discharge petition that allows new parents to vote remotely.
Reps. Anna Paulina Luna (R-FL), Tim Burchett (R-TN), Kevin Kiley (R-CA), Nick LaLota (R-NY), Jeff Van Drew (R-NJ), Max Miller (R-OH), Mike Lawler (R-NY), Greg Steube (R-FL), and Ryan Mackenzie (R-PA) voted against the rule that would have advanced the SAVE Act and the No Rogue Rulings Act for votes later this week.
Because the rule failed, the legislation cannot move forward, and Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) cancelled votes for the rest of the week as a result.
