Republicans won special elections in two Florida Congressional districts. The margins of victory in the heavily-Republican districts were significantly narrower than in November.

Republicans defended two House seats in Florida while both parties hoped to win a coveted seat on the Wisconsin Supreme Court.

Former Florida state Sen. Randy Fine will win the special election for an open House seat in Florida’s 6th Congressional District, according to a projection from the CNN Decision Desk. The result means a sigh of relief for Republicans after late concerns emerged over their candidate’s efforts in the overwhelmingly conservative district.

With a 218 to 213 majority in the House, Republicans cannot afford to lose winnable elections – let alone slam dunks.

Speaker Mike Johnson on Tuesday abruptly halted all work in the House after suffering a major defeat over his push to block remote voting in Congress for new parents.

Nine Republicans joined with all Democrats to vote against a procedural rule to advance a package of GOP-led bills over the proxy vote fight.

The group of Republicans teamed up with Democrats to overcome a procedural hurdle backed by GOP leadership that would have blocked a proposed resolution allowing new parents in Congress to vote remotely.

House GOP leadership had attempted to engineer a way to quietly kill the bipartisan plan from two new mothers — Republican Rep. Anna Paulina Luna and Democratic Rep. Brittany Pettersen.

House Speaker Mike Johnson is mounting an unusually aggressive effort to squash a proposal for new parents in Congress to able to vote by proxy.

House Speaker Mike Johnson on Tuesday canceled votes for the rest of the week after he failed to stop renegade Republicans from forcing a vote to restore proxy voting in the chamber.

But House Speaker Mike Johnson and his leadership team were not having it. What’s the phrase? “When you can’t beat ‘em, change the rules to avoid embarrassment”? I think that’s how it goes. The House Rules Committee did just that on Tuesday.

A group of House Republicans rebelled against GOP leaders on Tuesday over their effort to block a vote on allowing proxy voting for new parents — thwarting other party priorities in the process
