The vote has allowed Democrats to write and pass their own spending package without Republican support.<\/p>\n<p>However, it also included a nonbinding commitment to take up the Senate-passed infrastructure deal by September 27. Centrists Democrats previously refused to move forward with any of the Democrat House leadership\u2019s agenda before there were assurances to pass the bipartisan infrastructure deal first.<\/p>\n<p>In addition, the far-reaching vote advanced Democrats\u2019 so-called voting rights bill, which the House passed later Tuesday night.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Tone deaf and out-of-touch, per usual. <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/U43qSH91Ad\">https:\/\/t.co\/U43qSH91Ad<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Rep Andy Biggs (@RepAndyBiggsAZ) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/RepAndyBiggsAZ\/status\/1430267167073787907?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">August 24, 2021<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Speaking on the floor, House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) said this was a sad day for the country as he pointed out the trillions of dollars in spending the bills would rack up if fully passed.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNo, it is not a good day. Maybe in your caucus you think it\u2019s a great day for you and the Democrats,\u201d he expressed. \u201cIt is an embarrassing day to America, it\u2019s an embarrassing day for this floor and it\u2019s embarrassing that you would even move forward with it. I yield back.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The California Republican also condemned Democrats for all but ignoring the disastrous Afghan withdrawal by arguing Congress should be drafting legislation to help get Americans stranded in the war torn country back home and to ensure the Taliban takeover did not pose a threat to U.S. national security.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDemocrats called us back for an emergency session this first session since Kabul fell to the Taliban,\u201d he stated. \u201cFaced with a national security and credibility crisis in Afghanistan, they have done nothing to plan to address it.\u201d<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">It\u2019s an embarrassing day for our nation.
