not sure about the split between House reps who are moms w/ young kids vs not, but there are 94 Dem Women Reps, & 31 GOP. If some Reps are absent for a vote, but young moms are (god forbid) allowed to proxy vote to be w/ their child, it would theoretically advantage Dems against GOP small margin

Proxy voting is done with shareholders all the time. It’s not a new or revolutionary concept. I guess it’s the fact that it benefits mothers that makes Mike so upset. 🤦🏽‍♀️

Such a weak little weasel. He clearly believes women belong at home, barefoot and pregnant, in the kitchen. When you buy them shoes and let them get a job, they can wreak havoc in a man’s life. When they actually form their own opinions, it’s game over.

I hate to agree with Johnson on this one. Knowing that online voting looked suspicious in 7 states that suddenly flipped, it seems best to vote in person. How about provide a nursery for Congress people with newborns?

Like every other member of the MAGA Taliban, Johnson thinks women should be penalized for being mothers and also having a career, as a first step to banning them from having careers. Just like it used to be back when America was "great". I want Mike Johnson to die in an extremely painful manner.

So, allowing a woman to continue her job in the first months postpartum will destroy the GOP agenda? How about if I rephrase it: the GOP agenda is aimed at not letting women work. They say it out loud and people still don’t have a problem with the misogyny

Better idea, let's hold Mike Johnson responsible for the hell that is now the USA. Johnson KNOWS everything he's remaining silent about is corrupt and illegal. He's letting it happen. Put the responsibility squarely in his lap. Let him know this will cost him ever holding office again

He’s trying SO HARD to stay in the closet, bless his heart, but his guttural hate of women and fulfilling love of Christ, give it away. I wish I could jump 100 yrs. just to read the thousands of books psychologists write about the proclivities of white Christian nationalist republican males.

Johnson has no tolerance for new parents who happen to represent their state in the House of Representatives. During COVID, he had no problem voting by proxy - he voted by proxy many times. Now, he says to allow new moms to vote by proxy is intolerant - that it will destroy tradition of the House.

Oh but isn’t it for fathers too? And don’t you always preach about people having more babies. Yet you want that to take away their voting rights. Imagine that’s you POS MAGAits treason and traitor. Misogynistic closeted simp gay as fuck and too scared to show his true colors.

Women endanger the GOP's schemes. That sounds about right. When you only do things for yourselves and not for everyone you end up screwing yourselves in the process. That's why it's called discrimination. Thank God for that last check that keeps things at least somewhat in balance.

I’m asking sincerely, can someone explain this to me like I’m sleep deprived. Why is proxy voting exclusive to moms? Is he admitting that moms would not vote in alignment with the GOP agenda? I truly don’t get this…

He and all djt cronies and sycophants must be voted out. MJ is a leader in name only. We know who’s driving this bus—and straight off a ledge. #standwithwomen #resist

Clearly, women don’t belong in Congress. That’s what he’s really saying! Their only worth is staying home or being the Stepford wife mouthpiece for Oompa Loompa.

Gee, maybe a GOP congressional mom said something to him, or maybe a GOP single dad did, naaa, only the DEMs might need that 'scheme' ... The GOP is 'pro-birth, but not really 'pro-life' ... all that caring for sick children, feeding them, and diapering the babies, and the school requirements!

Good job Congressional Moms! Glad you & the men with backbones in Congress care enough about this “rule” that could have easily been honored, but crybabies wanted to throw temper tantrums when they think they won’t get their way…hmmm. Just let them vote by proxy, business goes on. 🤦‍♀️🤷‍♀️😭
