Florida Republican Rep. Anna Paulina Luna resigned from the House Freedom Caucus on Monday night after the group moved to prevent a vote on her plan to allow new fathers and mothers to vote in the House by proxy rather than having to travel with their infants.
“For several years, I have stood shoulder to shoulder with you, from the speaker’s fight — where I was one of only 20 — to numerous efforts aimed at bringing the institutional change Washington so desperately needs. My goal has always been to work alongside like-minded individuals committed to fighting for the American people and delivering on the promises President Trump campaigned on. I have consistently supported each of you, even in moments of disagreement, honoring the mutual respect that has guided our caucus,” Luna wrote in a letter addressed to the caucus,” Paulina Luna declared.
