The 9 House Republicans who rebelled against leadership over new-mom proxy voting issue
The rule was blocked in a 206-222 split.
Nine Republicans crossed party lines on Tuesday to join all House Democrats in opposing a procedural rule that would block a floor vote on a bill that would allow proxy voting for new moms.
The internal revolt forced House Republican leadership to send lawmakers home by canceling all votes for the remainder of the week. The House will reconvene on Monday.
Here are the nine Republicans who voted against the procedural rule:
California Rep. Kevin Kiley
Florida Rep. Anna Paulina Luna
Florida Rep. Greg Steube
New Jersey Rep. Jeff Van Drew
New York Rep. Mike Lawler
New York Rep. Nick LaLota
Ohio Rep. Max Miller
Pennsylvania Rep. Ryan MacKenzie
Tennessee Rep. Tim Burchett
The rule was blocked in a 206-222 vote.
