NextImg:BREAKING: Conservatives revolt over Johnson’s new spending deal, stonewall business in the House…

Conservatives in the House have just blocked a procedural vote on a rule because they are protesting Johnson’s new spending deal with Democrats. By blocking the rule, the House can’t move forward with three bills they were planning to vote on this week.

Here’s the news via The Hill:

A band of House conservatives tanked a procedural vote on Wednesday in a rebellion against the spending deal Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) struck with Democrats, which members of the right flank have sharply criticized.

Thirteen Republicans joined with Democrats to vote against the rule for a trio of bills, preventing the chamber from debating and voting on the measures — which are unrelated to spending. Rep. Blake Moore (R-Utah), the vice chair of the House GOP conference, changed his vote to oppose the rule shortly before the vote closed, a move that allows him to bring up the rule for another vote at a later time.

The final tally was 203-216. Republican leadership canceled an afternoon vote series following the revolt.

The show of opposition came days after Johnson unveiled a deal on topline spending numbers for the remainder of fiscal year 2024. Conservatives have railed against the deal for not cutting spending enough.

Congress is staring down Jan. 19 and Feb. 2 shutdown deadlines.

It wouldn’t have taken but a couple since the Republican majority is so slim. So who are the 13 Republicans? Here are their names via the House clerk:
