The Politics of Debt Ceiling: Boebert, Biden, Mace, and the Future of Default Threats.
TL;DR Summary
Representative Lauren Boebert, a Colorado Republican, claimed in a video posted on Twitter that she intentionally skipped the recent vote on the debt limit bill, referring to it as a "no-show protest," adding that the bill had been "shoved down our throats." Boebert had previously been among the Republicans speaking out against the contents of the bill, tweeting last Saturday that she intended to vote against it. The debt limit bill passed 314-117, with Boebert's absence not making a difference in the outcome.
