Thirteen Republicans under fire for breaking ranks on infrastructure bill

Thirteen GOP lawmakers came under fire after bucking the party line and voting in favor of the $1.2 trillion Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act, with several defending their decisions Saturday morning.

The lawmakers were slammed by those on the Right, such as Georgia Republican Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, for their votes in favor of the infrastructure bill, after which several of the 13 lawmakers took to Twitter to defend their votes. Republican Reps. Don Bacon of Nebraska, Don Young of Alaska, Adam Kinzinger of Illinois, Andrew Garbarino and John Katko of New York, and David McKinley of West Virginia were among those who defended their decision to cross the aisle.
