No need to repeat yourself. Why are you getting so worked up? I think we'd all like to understand what the hold up was on these bills, but let's base that in supported facts, not partisanship.

As stated above, it was 14 to 13 by party lines in this committee, and that's a negligible difference.

Two bills were passed with zero Republican votes in 2021 and 2022 by Democrats, the repeal could've been included in either if democrats wanted.

There were only 27 members in the committee. So all the Democrats on the committee voted against the repeal and all the republicans voted for the repeal.

How is that a negligible difference? That's a massive maximum difference between the parties, in fact it was impossible to have a higher difference.

Do you have the voting records of this bill in committee? Of course there were 27 members, that's the sum of the Democrats and Republicans. That does not mean that they voted on party lines in committee.
