I'm hearing that the Congressional Progressive Caucus is whipping their members to vote AGAINST HR 3, the drug pricing bill that Pelosi decided to commandeer. CPC is seeing if they have the numbers to vote down the rule and tank the bill.
Pelosi pushed the caucus too far by whittling down the drug pricing bill, seen as a top priority, and taking out Rep. Jayapal's amendment to expand the population of beneficiaries. prospect.org/health/mother-…
it's the culmination of an incredible journey for a bill Pelosi named after Elijah Cummings. She froze progressives out of the process and torched their amendments.
Previous Progressive Caucuses would have taken it. This one appears to be fighting back.

This mutiny is proof that Wendell Primus has destroyed the legislative apparatus in the House and should be fired
