@msnbc: Rep. Brittany Pettersen, D-Colo., spoke on the House floor while holding her newborn baby to advocate for a proposal for new parents in Congress to be able to vote by proxy, rather than in person, as they care for newborns. A group of Republican lawmakers later sunk Speaker Mike Johnson's effort to block the proxy-voting push, which has been led by Rep. Anna Paulina Luna, R-Fla. #congress #mom #momlife #democrats
They see our birth rate dropping.. they demand we have more children.. yet they refuse to give us sick leave, healthcare, childcare, college, a Dept of Education!, housing is insane now 😑

They don’t want to address it because they don’t want women in Congress.

They’re asking for remote voting / voting by proxy for new parents. Repubs voted this way during COVID countless times and there were no issues
