[Greater Arab State]

House Floor

Representative Thomas Volker (R-MO-8): “Aye.”

Shortly after, Volker distributed a note to the Republicans present within the chamber.

Everyone needs to vote aye on this, this’ll help delay the gun control bill as mentioned in the House Republican Conference meeting.

After seeing the notes off, Volker discreetly spoke to some Blue Dog Democrats who had started off in the House around the same time as him to try and persuade them to vote aye as an act of bipartisanship as well as doing the same to some vulnerable Democrats in districts that voted for Wolf in 2016.

[Democratic Peoples republic of Kelvinsi]

Park(R-CA) 'Aye"

Rep. Vohoffsky (R-CA-45): "Aye!"

[Gordano and Lysandus]

Representative Caroline Simone
[Democratic - 12th District of the State of New York]
{Chair of the House Democratic Caucus}

Noting Minority Leader Volker's attempt to court Blue Dog and Wolf District Democrats to try to delay the gun bill, Simone made her own movements to lean on them, to make clear that the Democratic leadership would take an extremely dim view on them blocking this vote and that it was non-negotiable.

Vohoffsky noted Atang's vote against basic human decency.

Rep. Vohoffsky (R-CA-45): "Aye!"

Atang noted that he had co-sponsored the bill and Vohoffsky hadn't, and that Vohoffsky was just pushing the bill now to protect his bribes from gun companies via the NRA.
