House Republicans Back Down on Biden Impeachment Vote

The House of Representatives voted to refer a resolution offered by Republican Rep. Lauren Boebert of Colorado to committee, effectively pausing a move to bring a privileged motion to the floor that would have forced members to vote on whether to impeach President Joe Biden. Boebert's resolution had divided House Republicans, with many members expressing frustration with the conservative congresswoman's push to force a vote on the politically contentious issue. House Homeland Security Chairman Mark Green said that the committee will make Biden a focus of their investigation into the southern border, after the House approved the rule referring an impeachment resolution to his panel.
