Media: Four Republican lawmakers oppose procedural vote on Trump's tax bill
Jin10 Data, July 3 - According to The Wall Street Journal, on Wednesday evening local time, Republican leaders in the U.S. House of Representatives faced setbacks on Trump's tax and spending bill, as the party's slim majority once again created a dramatic moment on Capitol Hill at the last minute. Four Republican lawmakers - Keith Self, Victoria Spartz, Andrew Clyde, and Brian Fitzpatrick - voted against the procedural "rule" vote alongside Democrats, temporarily blocking the Republicans from moving into the final passage phase. The procedural voting lasted until late at night, continuing for more than 7 hours, reportedly the longest voting period in House history.
