The US debt limit deal clears a key hurdle in the committee after fierce criticism from GOP hardliners. It's now on track for a House floor vote
In a win for McCarthy, the bill cleared a key hurdle Tuesday evening when the powerful House Rules Committee voted seven to six to advance the debt ceiling bill to the floor. The bill will come to floor Wednesday for debate and a final passage vote before it goes to the Senate. The Rules Committee vote had been highly anticipated due to the fact that some of the loudest conservative critics of the bill are members of the panel.
But when the committee met to consider the bill, Massie said he anticipated he would support the rule. “I want to see the rule – it’s not printed yet, it’s not been read, but I anticipate voting for this rule,” Massie said. In January, Massie told CNN he was reluctant to vote against rules to stop bills in their tracks.
