Ultimately, passage isn't in jeopardy — but it could be delayed for as long as it takes for 216 members to arrive in Washington.
Massie's office did not respond to a request for comment, though he told WKRC radio Thursday that he plans to vote against the package. Massie said that he opposes a voice vote on the bill, the report said."I'm having a really hard time with this. Because they're saying, well it's hard to travel, yadda yadda yadda," Massie said."Well, last night, 96 out of 100 senators voted. All we would need is 218 out of 435 to vote."
"Members are encouraged to follow the guidance of their local and state health officials, however if they are able and willing to be in Washington D.C. by 10:00 a.m. tomorrow, members are encouraged to do so with caution," Hoyer's notice to members said.
