In a rare vote, Democrats on the GOP-led House Rules Committee helped advance bills on April 18 that would give assistance to Israel, Ukraine, and the Indo-Pacific, in addition to a bill that includes a myriad of measures, such as forcing China to divest TikTok.
The final tally to bring to the House floor what is called a rule—which sets the parameters such as whether amendments can be offered and that is voted on before the House can proceed to the votes on the measures themselves—passed 9-3.
