House cancels rest of votes for week after GOP floor rebellion

 

House Republican leaders on Tuesday canceled votes for the rest of the week after a band of GOP lawmakers staged a rebellion on the floor, bringing legislative action to a screeching halt.

House Majority Whip Tom Emmer (R-Minn.) informed lawmakers the next vote in the House would be Monday evening.

The announcement came minutes after nine Republicans joined all Democrats in opposing a procedural rule that would have killed a bipartisan effort to allow proxy voting for new parents.
