Lawmakers scramble to punish each other as House returns to business
Now that a House speaker is in place and legislative business has resumed after weeks of gridlock, lawmakers are seizing the opportunity to introduce long-awaited measures to censure and expel each other.
This reflects the increasing acrimony between the two major parties in Congress, which intensified during the speaker vacancy and the escalating Israel-Hamas conflict.
On Thursday, Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) introduced a motion to compel a vote on censuring Representative Rashida Tlaib (D-Mich.) for her criticism of Israel and her participation in a protest inside a House office building last week, where a ceasefire in Gaza was called for.
In response, Representative Becca Balint (D-Vt.) introduced a similar motion to censure Greene, citing inflammatory comments made over the past five years, including some allegedly anti-Semitic remarks, Axios reported.
