Meet the Republicans who voted against condemning Putin’s illegal abduction of children

In a rare, massively bipartisan vote on Tuesday, the House of Representatives passed a resolution condemning Russia’s illegal abduction of thousands of children from Ukraine, and holding Russian President Vladimir Putin responsible. The final tally was 390-9. All nine “no” votes were by Republicans.

Sponsored by Pennsylvania Democratic Rep. Susan Wild, HR 149, “Condemning the illegal abduction of children from Ukraine to the Russian Federation,” had been introduced in February of 2023 and made its way to the House Committee on Foreign Affairs, where it sat for nearly nine months before being passed unanimously and sent to the full House for a vote. It is symbolic and does not order any funds or any actions.

The nine House Republicans who voted no are:

Andy Biggs (AZ), Eric Burlison (MO), Warren Davidson (OH), Marjorie Taylor Greene (GA), Clay Higgins (LA), Thomas Massie (KY), Matt Rosendale (MT), Chip Roy (TX) and Tom Tiffany (WI).
