it was a procedural vote to send the articles to a subcommittee.

And the only Republican voting against it was Massie.

It wasn't a Democratic motion, it was Massie's. And the Republicans had enough votes to send it to committee (they mustered 215 on a later vote) in any event. They could have scrounged another couple of votes.

I don't know the details of how or whether Massie tried to coordinate with the Democratic Caucus, but this wasn't Jeffries dog, it was Massie's.
