We hate peace and protection, I guess
Eighteen Republican lawmakers voted against the US allowing Finland and Sweden to join NATO.
Among the dissenters in the Monday vote were some of the party's farthest-right members, including Reps. Marjorie Taylor Greene (GA), Matt Gaetz (FL) and Lauren Boebert (CO).
The vote was a symbolic one to express support from the House for the applications — the formal process by which the US can ratify new NATO members takes place in the Senate. The House bill passed easily with 394 votes, leaving the 18 Republicans in a small minority even among their own party.
Here is the full list:
Andy Biggs (AZ)
Dan Bishop (NC)
Lauren Boebert (CO)
Madison Cawthorn (NC)
Ben Cline (VA)
Michael Cloud (TX)
Warren Davidson (OH)
Matt Gaetz (FL)
Bob Good (OH)
Marjorie Taylor Greene (GA)
H. Morgan Griffith (VA)
Thomas Massie (KY)
Tom McClintock (CA)
Mary E. Miller (IL)
Ralph Norman (SC)
Matthew M. Rosendale Sr. (MT)
Chip Roy (TX)
Jefferson Van Drew (NJ)
Nineteen US lawmakers didn't vote. Funny they'd give Putin what he's been hoping for.
