Almost half of the U.S. Congressional delegation from Texas voted against the measure to increase the debt ceiling. The bill passed the House Wednesday; the Senate must pass the measure by Monday to ensure the U.S. does not default.

The measure would suspend the $31.4 trillion debt ceiling for two years. The bill would also cap some spending and recover unused COVID funds.

Of Texas' 38 U.S. representatives, 18 voted against the measure: 14 Republicans and four Democrats.
