House Dems Push to Kill Controversial Fund

House Democrats are launching a bold move to permanently kill a controversial $1.8 billion fund, filing a discharge petition for the NO CARTE BLANCHE Act to force a vote — even against GOP leadership. Rep. Jamie Raskin argues Justice Department assurances aren’t enough, since no official written commitment exists to shut down the fund for good. The bill aims to block not just this fund, but any future ones, protecting the Judgment Fund from abuse. With eight successful discharge petitions already this Congress, the push could force action — and put Republicans in a bind, as backing the petition means defying party leadership and risking fallout from Trump, who’s known to punish GOP dissent.
