Republicans' stonewall forces Democrats to pull bill honoring Capitol Police

House Democrats on Monday yanked more than a dozen bills from the floor schedule - including one honoring police officers for defending the Capitol on Jan. 6 - after conservative Republicans threatened to force stand-alone votes on each proposal.

The 13 bills had been scheduled for the suspension calendar, a routine procedure allowing non-controversial bills to move quickly to passage on the House floor. Among them was a proposal, sponsored by Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.), to award congressional gold medals to Capitol Police and the D.C. Metropolitan Police for each department's role in the deadly Capitol attack on Jan. 6.

Yet conservatives in the GOP conference indicated they would demand a roll-call vote on each bill - a lengthy process given the health concerns surrounding the coronavirus pandemic - that would have kept lawmakers voting on the floor until almost dawn on Tuesday.

Rather than push through with that arduous schedule, Democratic leaders postponed floor activity on the 13 suspension bills, and will seek ways to fast-track them at a later date.

4. Can you imagine

hearing that you are not going to get what surely must be the highest honor they will ever get in their careers? Are they glad they risked their asses to save these miserable GOPs?

Life is cheap to Repubs. How quickly they forget having to cower in their offices. They could have acted on that one bill.
