Inside Mike Johnson's déjà vu cycle of failed rule votes
Speaker Mike Johnson faces repeated failed rule votes in the House due to a bloc of Republicans blocking legislative action over the SAVE Act. The ninth failed vote occurred last week, with members objecting to the National Defense Authorization Act for not including a SAVE Act amendment. Johnson aims to pass the SAVE Act through Senate reconciliation, but time is limited before the November midterms.
