Thanks for sharing this. I was absolutely shitting on Biden for this move, so I'm spreading this wherever I spread that.
Mea culpa for sure.
It's alright, we're all learning.
This was a house vote, not a veto-overriding vote from both the house and senate. It did not force biden to do anything
Incorrect, he was holding back shipments purposefully, this forces shipments to begin again and while he could veto it given the overwhelming support it would have bought a couple days at best and if you read both of those articles it's very clear that that would have been the outcome.
This was just a house vote, you know it would need to pass the senate too before a veto and it didn't even win with a veto-overriding majority in the house.. Really not sure where you're getting the idea that this actually forces Biden's hand in any way
