The internal conflicts within the Democratic Party in the House have escalated again, as progressive members are considering retaliatory measures against Washington state Representative Mariah Gruenberg-Perez. Multiple informed lawmakers said that progressive members are considering introducing a resolution accusing Perez of "falsely claiming not to have received corporate PAC donations," in response to her sudden motion last week that disapproved Illinois Representative Teyla Garcia. Perez's actions have caused strong dissatisfaction within the Democratic core circle, with many lawmakers complaining that she disrupted a week that was originally expected to show unity. The Garcia campaign emphasized that his withdrawal from the race was due to temporary health issues and family pressures, rather than political maneuvering as suspected by outsiders. Democrats expressed anger towards Perez in private conversations and public statements on Monday. Democratic leaders tried to block Perez's resolution on Monday but failed in a vote of 206 to 211, forcing the House to hold a vote on the resolution on Tuesday afternoon. Overall, this internal conflict is further shaking the already fragile unity of the Democratic Party.
