Republican P.Q. -  If we defeat the Previous Question, Republicans will amend the rule to immediately consider the attached bill (H.R. 6177 – Leader McCarthy) that requires Members to disclose tax liens in their financial disclosures, provides for garnishment of wages to satisfy the lien, and holds pay in escrow until liens are satisfied. Members who don't pay their taxes to the federal government shouldn't receive pay from hardworking taxpayers.
