House Democrats Unveil New Rules Package
Summary from the AllSides News Team
House Democrats have unveiled new rules for the next two years in Congress, including the creation of a climate change committee and a provision that bans discrimination based on sexual orientation and gender identity. Some Democrats have vowed to oppose the package because of the pay-go portion, which requires that new expenditures be offset by spending cuts or increased sources of revenue.
