House Rules Committee Advances GOP Resolution Condemning Socialism Amid Heated Democratic Backlash

The measure also backs Republican election security bills and would force Democrats to take a public position on socialism.

  • The House Rules Committee advanced a resolution on Monday condemning socialism, with no Democrats voting to move it forward, setting up procedural votes on Tuesday.
  • House GOP Conference Chair Lisa McClain, R-Mich., said Republicans intend to "put you on record" on socialism and Supreme Court expansion, challenging Democrats on their party positions.
  • Rep. Jim McGovern, D-Mass., called the bill "nonsense," while the resolution promotes the Safeguarding American Voter Eligibility Act, which Democrats labeled the "Suppress the Vote Act."
  • A procedural "rule vote" is scheduled for Tuesday afternoon, followed by a final resolution vote Tuesday evening, while House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, D-N.Y., avoided questions on his position Monday.
  • Progressives have called for expanding the Supreme Court to up to 13 seats, while Rep. Langworthy said he has seen an "alarming rise of socialism" impacting New York taxpayers.
