Looks like Massie taught the Democrats a new trick. Hopefully, this dies in the Senate. If not, I'm sure President "Please Love Me" will sign it.

Four Republicans signed onto a so-called discharge petition brought by House Democratic leader Hakeem Jeffries of New York despite opposition by House Speaker Mike Johnson. A discharge petition forces a floor vote without referral by committee if it is signed by 218 Congress members. It is an increasingly popular tactic in a deeply divided Congress and was also used to force a vote on releasing files on financier Jeffrey Epstein.
The Republicans who signed the petition include Michael Lawler of New York plus three representatives from Pennsylvania: Brian Fitzpatrick, Robert Bresnahan, and Ryan Mackenzie.
