[servo1969]

Republican Reps. Justin Amash (R-MI), Michele Bachmann (R-MN), Dave Brat (R-VA), Mo Brooks (R-AL), Paul Broun (R-GA), Louie Gohmert (R-TX), Paul Gosar (R-AZ), Tim Huelskamp (R-KS), Walter Jones (R-NC), Jim Jordan (R-OH), Steve King (R-IA), Raul Labrador (R-ID), Tom Massie (R-KY), Bill Posey (R-FL), Matt Salmon (R-AZ) and Steve Stockman (R-TX) held the line and voted no. Rep. Kerry Bentivolio (R-MI) switched his vote from nay to yay at the last minute.

If the numbers that are being reported—50 to 60, maybe more—of Republicans hold on against the final passage of the bill later in the day, and all the Democrats who opposed the rule oppose the bill, the bill would fail on final passage. It remains to be seen what will happen.

I have a damn car salesman as my congresscritter.
So far Roger Williams has been a do-nothing go along rhino. I’ve even emailed and told him to do SOMETHING. Got a form letter response. I notice he didn’t buck the rhino dictate!

[Red Badger]

I hope this is a sign of what will happen in the new Congress seated in January. Boner and his clique may be toast..............................

[DannyTN]

That muscle probably atrophied away when his spine did.

[Red Badger]

Careful! That stuff has LEAD in it! It’s gonna kill us all!!!!!!........................

Well, you still did the right thing by trying.

You never know what tips the balance. They track the calls and enough people call, they see which way the wind is blowing and get with it.

Too many here just beyotch and moan when they just need to DO something.

We are activists, after all!

[Red Badger]

I count only 19...................

[AmericanRobot]

I contacted my Rep. Duncan (SC) to inform him of my thoughts on his yay vote. I let him know in case he wasn’t sure that he is a coward.

For once I’m cheering for Democrats.

[EQAndyBuzz]

Give me 51 like her and I we would own government.

[SharpRightTurn]

Great to see Dave Brat (who knocked off Cantor) do what he said he would do.

It’s a shame that only 17 out of 231 Republicans had the guts to vote down the rule on this turkey of a bill.

[taxcontrol]

I’m of the opinion that Rep Bentivolio needs to be primary-ed out in addition to Boehner.

[Jane Long]

Call, fax or tweet....FWIW bump!

[Georgia Girl 2]

God bless Paul Broun from GA. He should have been elected the new senator from GA.

[CPT Clay]

214 to 212

[EQAndyBuzz]

Michigan pols are so gullible. Just ask Bart Stupak.

[CPT Clay]

Dave Brat should not be seated until January.

Who voted how?
We gottum list?

[CPT Clay]

Rep. Kerry Bentivolio (R-MI) switched his vote from nay to yay at the last minute.

Wasn’t he defeated by a gop e type?
