Rep. Nicole Malliotakis (R-NY) resigned as vice chair and member of the bipartisan Problem Solvers Caucus on Friday after the House shot down her legislation to establish a Smithsonian American Women’s History Museum on the National Mall.
The bill failed by a 216-204 vote on Thursday, with six Republicans joining Democrats to oppose it. Malliotakis said the vote was the final straw for her, and she criticized Democrats for consistently refusing to cross the aisle.
