The group of progressives in the House of Representatives known as The Squad stuck to their guns against House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and the establishment Democrats.
On Friday the House voted 228 – 206 to pass the $1.2 trillion after months of delays and infighting which means the bill now goes to the desk of Joe Biden for his signature, CNN reported.
But six Democrats voted no, and they were Rep. Jamaal Bowman of New York and Squad members Reps. Cori Bush of Missouri, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez of New York, Ilhan Omar of Minnesota, Ayanna Pressley of Massachusetts and Rashida Tlaib of Michigan.
