US Congress LIVE | Explosive Debates Rock Senate House Floor | Trump Tariff War
A routine procedural vote in the US House of Representatives turned into a surprising political clash as nine Republicans broke ranks with their party, halting legislative work for the rest of the week. This disruption jeopardized two crucial bills supported by President Trump’s administration, which were set for votes on Wednesday and Thursday. House Speaker Mike Johnson expressed frustration, calling it a disappointing outcome as a few Republicans teamed up with Democrats to block the rule, preventing further action on the floor for the week. The blocked rule would have allowed debate on bills to limit district judges’ power over nationwide injunctions and require proof of citizenship for voter registration, a major setback for Republican leadership.
