House members are able to vote by proxy in lieu of in-person voting due to rule changes passed during the COVID-19 pandemic. Despite this, two Republican members, Rep. John Carter, of Texas, and Rep. Daniel Webster, of Florida, missed the vote, according to the roll call. Every other Republican voted against the measure. [ Source: Just the News (Read More…) ]
