Oregon’s 4th District Congressman, Peter DeFazio led a revolt rejecting the tax bill compromise proposed by President Obama.
The resolution passed by a near-unanimous voice vote during an early-morning, closed meeting of House Democrats. While the vote is not binding and is not likely to kill the agreement, it poses a problem for a White House that hoped to move the deal quickly.
DeFazio said afterward that the deal must be changed in major ways if the White House is to gain their support.
