阿德丽塔·格里哈尔瓦 (Adelita Grijalva) 将宣誓就任亚利桑那州新任美国众议员,使民主党能够推进一项关键的资助法案并提出退伍请愿书。
Adelita Grijalva is set to be sworn in as Arizona’s new U.S. Rep., enabling Democrats to advance a key funding bill and discharge petition.
亚利桑那州当选国会候选人Adelita Grijalva预计将在本周宣誓就职,
U.S. Rep.-elect Adelita Grijalva of Arizona is expected to be sworn in this week, more than a month after winning a special election, ahead of a key House vote on a government funding bill.
她的宣誓被众议院议长Mike Johnson推迟, 他提到众议院由于政府持续关闭而没有开庭,
Her swearing-in had been delayed by House Speaker Mike Johnson, who cited the House not being in session due to the ongoing government shutdown, though pro forma sessions have continued during the shutdown.
Grijalva和亚利桑那州总检察长提出诉讼,试图强迫她宣誓就职,理由是拖延是没有道理的。
Grijalva and Arizona’s attorney general filed a lawsuit seeking to compel her swearing-in, arguing the delay was unjustified.
Johnson否认任何政治动机,声称拖延是程序性的,与她承诺支持Epstein案卷的释放请愿无关。
Johnson denied any political motive, stating the delay was procedural and unrelated to her pledge to support a discharge petition on the Epstein files.
此举将允许她就供资法案进行表决,并帮助民主党达到退伍请愿书所需的门槛。
The move will allow her to vote on the funding bill and help Democrats reach the threshold needed for the discharge petition.
