Sadly, Johnson can and will squash this, but I applaud Ro Khanna for introducing it.

If only this were somehow privileged.

A privileged resolution is a type of resolution that deals with the internal operations, rules, or constitutional duties of the House. Under House Rule IX, these can be brought directly to the floor by any member, without needing the Speaker’s approval.

Types of Privileged Resolutions in the U.S. House:

• Impeachment of a president or other civil officer
• Censure or reprimand of a House member
• Contempt of Congress (for defying subpoenas, etc.)
• Expulsion of a member (requires two-thirds vote)
• Challenges to the seating or election of a member
• Changes to the House rules
• Questions of privilege (issues affecting the dignity or functioning of the House)
• Resolutions of inquiry (demanding information from the executive branch)
