TL;DR Summary

House Democrats have abandoned plans to vote on a resolution to censure Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene after a coalition of Republicans and Democrats blocked a similar resolution against Rep. Rashida Tlaib. The two censure measures were seen as retaliatory actions. Greene had initiated the vote on Tlaib's censure, targeting her criticism of Israel, while Rep. Becca Balint had introduced a resolution to censure Greene for her controversial comments. Balint decided to hold back on the vote for now, acknowledging the Republicans who voted against the Tlaib resolution. Balint's resolution accuses Greene of promoting racism, antisemitism, hate speech, and conspiracy theories, including endorsing the 9/11 truther conspiracy theory and defending the Capitol rioters.
