The House voted down a measure seeking to censure Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-MI), dealing a blow to conservative Republicans who sought to punish the Michigan Democrat over accusations of antisemitic behavior related to comments she made about Israel last month.
Lawmakers voted 222-186 to table the motion, overcoming the simple majority vote needed to kill the vote on the House floor.
The measure failed after 23 Republicans joined all Democrats in tabling the motion, pushing it past the 217-vote threshold.
