A growing number of House Republicans are involved in an effort to remove language from an annual spending bill restricting access to abortion pills, Axios has learned.
Why it matters: The bloc has the numbers to kill legislation to fund the Department of Agriculture, where language about the pills is buried, and further heightens the risk of a government shutdown.
It’s a shameful tactic, regardless of the topic (which makes it even more shameful in this case). I hope they fail miserably and none of them gets reelected. McCarthy is undemocratic and ruthless. A perfect example of someone who should never be in a position of power, but almost always happens to get there in this country.
