3:35 p.m.
The House passed a procedural rule along party lines to launch a formal debate on the resolution to remove Greene from the Education and Budget committees.
Rep. Chip Roy (R-Texas) subsequently forced a vote on a motion to adjourn, which will delay passage of the resolution until later than originally expected Thursday afternoon.
The motion to adjourn is expected to fail. Once that vote is done, lawmakers will have an hour of debate on the Greene resolution before voting on it.

OP
Correct. The vote to kick her off the committees will happen after this motion to adjourn fails.

They want to avoid or delay having to go on record. I wonder who the two Democrats so far....

Not yet. That was the vote to proceed. And now a childish move by republican, a motion to adjourn...

I did the same thing couple of days ago. The way these votes are labeled can be confusing.

I don't think this is correct. I don't think the vote has been taken yet. n/t

Can't find any news that the vote has happened. On CSPAN, there is motion to adjourn the House

Thanks! Another lesson from the Trump playbook: Destroy your enemy with ridicule.
