So many #HouseRepublicans have gone to NY to support #Trump at his trial that it’s messing w/ #GOP *work* Capitol Hill, including their partisan fights.
With Reps #AndyBiggs of #Arizona & #AnnaPaulinaLuna & #MikeWaltz of #Florida all at the trial, the #House Oversight has been forced to postpone its planned vote to hold AG Merrick #Garland in #contempt of #Congress. Today’s vote has been pushed back from 11AM to 8PM for members to return to Washington 🙄.

Good night #sunset from my beautiful (if def still under construction!) #Arizona back yard... where #BidenHarris is supported despite flaws. Where we understand that the alternative is unthinkable.

#Arizona governor signs into law measure to repeal 1864 #abortion ban
“Hobbs’ signature does not alone guarantee that the ban will not take effect. Arizona legislation typically takes effect 90 days after the conclusion of the state legis session, which may last into summer. Arizona Dem lawmakers lacked the numbers to add an emergency clause into the repeal to let it go into effect earlier…ban may temporarily come into force”
