Six Texas Republican representatives joined with the eleven Democrats in the state’s congressional delegation to vote in favor of the bill to raise the debt ceiling. Nineteen Texas Republicans voted nay in attempting to block the measure. On a national level, 79 Republicans joined with all 187 Democrat members of the House to pass the measure back to the Senate.
Rep. Kevin Brady (R-TX)64% voted in favor of the bill with the Democrats, according to GovTrack.us. He announced this week that he seeks to replace Rep. Paul Ryan (R-WI)58% as chairman of the House Ways and Means Committee. Ryan is expected to succeed Rep. John Boehner (R-OH)37% on Thursday as Speaker of the House.
Brady voted alongside outgoing Speaker John Boehner and in opposition to the presumed incoming speaker Paul Ryan who openly expressed his displeasure with the bill to increase the national debt over a two year period. In the past, Brady has also voted for massive spending programs like the TARP programs.
Brady was joined by fellow Texas Republican Representatives Rep. John Culberson (R-TX)62% , Michael Conaway, Rep. Kay Granger (R-TX)51% , Rep. Mac Thornberry (R-TX)60% , and Rep. John Carter (R-TX)57% .
