Our resolution to allow new parents in Congress to vote remotely is meeting historic resistance—Speaker Johnson literally shut down the House to avoid a vote.

But we have a message for Johnson: we aren’t backing down until we get this done. Let us vote.

A procedural rule vote to advance the House GOP package of bills for the week just failed because a bipartisan group of Republicans and Dems sank an effort by Speaker Johnson to kill a plan to allow remote voting for lawmakers who become new parents.

Rep. Pettersen - “ Don't fuck with moms. “

In case it gets lost in the onslaught of news, today PBS and NPR are defending themselves before Congress.

If you’ve never seen this clip of Mr. Rogers advocating for PBS funding, I urge you to watch the full ~6 minutes. It’s incredibly powerful.

Here’s to the helpers, indeed.
