Swing district Democrats admitted Tuesday that their vote to table the resolution censuring Rep. Maxine Waters (D-CA) was not an “easy vote,” while others refused to comment after the vote.
House Democrats voted along party lines to block House Republican Leader Kevin McCarthy’s (R-CA) resolution censuring Waters for her comments over the weekend in which she allegedly incited violence. If the resolution passed through the House, Waters would have likely lost her position as the House Financial Services Committee chair.
Even though Democrats did stay in lock-step on this vote, many of them representing districts that Republicans could flip admitted that it was not easy. Others refused to talk to reporters after the vote.

Alcee Hastings had one request for his memorial service on Capitol Hill â a rendition of Frank Sinatraâs âMy Wayâ â his favorite song and an apt metaphor for his long, distinguished career as a civil rights activist and Floridaâs longest-serving member of Congress.
