Raskin launches discharge effort to formally block 'Anti-Weaponization Fund'

Rep. Jamie Raskin is leading an effort to block the Trump administration’s $1.8 billion Anti-Weaponization Fund through a discharge petition requiring 218 signatures. The No Carte Blanche Act aims to prevent payouts to Jan. 6 Capitol rioters and blocks a provision freeing Trump’s taxes from audits. A previous Senate attempt failed with a 50-49 vote.
