Sean Patrick Maloney&rsquo;s amendment to a defense spending authorization bill that would have prevented federal funds from going to contractors who don&rsquo;t comply with President Obama&rsquo;s order on LGBT discrimination.<\/p>\n<p>In particular, Democrats&nbsp;plan to go after representatives who face tough re-election bids this November.<\/p>\n<h1><span>PREVIOUSLY: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.towleroad.com\/2016\/05\/republicans-block-lgbt\/\"><em>Chaos Erupts in Congress As Republicans Block Measure That Would Protect LGBT Workers<\/em><\/a><\/span><a href=\"http:\/\/www.towleroad.com\/2016\/05\/republicans-block-lgbt\/\"><em>&nbsp;&ndash; WATCH<\/em><\/a><\/h1>\n<p>The total list of Republican representatives who switched sides is as follows:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Reps. Jeff Denham (Calif.)<\/li>\n<li>Darrell Issa (Calif.)<\/li>\n<li>David Valadao (Calif.)<\/li>\n<li>Mimi Walters (Calif.)<\/li>\n<li>Greg Walden (Ore.)<\/li>\n<li>Bruce Poliquin (Maine) [above right]<\/li>\n<li>David Young (Iowa) [above left]<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/thehill.com\/homenews\/house\/280759-dems-vow-retribution-on-house-lgbt-vote\">The Hill reports:&nbsp;<\/a><\/p>\n<div>\n<div>According to a Democratic leadership aide, they were able to identify which Republicans changed votes using a computer on the floor that prints updates of vote results as they occur. Democrats were able to compare the printouts to see who switched positions.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>Of the seven, Young, Poliquin, Denham and Valadao are among Democrats&rsquo; biggest targets this election cycle. And Democrats see the vote-switching as a prime way to counter those Republicans&rsquo; claims of independence from their leadership and paint them as hiding their actions from the public.<\/p>\n<p>[&hellip;] An official for House Democrats&rsquo; campaign arm, the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee (DCCC), told The Hill that the vote is expected to become a major issue in a competitive race like Young&rsquo;s. Nonpartisan political prognosticators like the Cook Political Report and Sabato&rsquo;s Crystal Ball rate Young&rsquo;s district as a &ldquo;toss up.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>Young&rsquo;s expected general election opponent, Democrat Jim Mowrer, seized on Young&rsquo;s vote as local news headlines piled up about Young&rsquo;s role in the House floor chaos.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;This type of extreme partisanship is something we should expect from someone who has never held a job outside of Congress,&rdquo; Mowrer said in a statement. &ldquo;This is why we need new representation in Congress and why I believe so strongly in putting service to Iowans ahead of politics.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>Poliquin has denied he voted against the amendment, saying,&nbsp;&ldquo;I abhor discrimination in any form and at any place.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>That hasn&rsquo;t stopped&nbsp;Emily Cain,&nbsp;his Democratic challenger, from going after him. In a statement issued Friday, Cain said,&nbsp;Congressman Poliquin apparently has no moral compass on the issue of discrimination.&nbsp;But what&rsquo;s truly disappointing is that Congressman Poliquin didn&rsquo;t come clean with voters, but instead reversed himself in secret as part of a backroom deal with Republican leadership.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>Polquin also received unfavorable local news headlines over the vote:<\/p>\n<p>Local news headlines about Poliquin&rsquo;s vote were largely unflattering. &ldquo;Poliquin takes flak for switching to vote against LGBT-rights provision,&rdquo; blared a headline in the Bangor Daily News. &ldquo;Poliquin among 7 House Republicans to switch votes, defeating <a title=\"\" class=\"aalmanual\" target=\"_blank\"   href=\"https:\/\/chaturbate.com\/in\/?tour=R2Xc&#38;campaign=hl4zp&#38;track=gfcsb\">gay<\/a> rights protection,&rdquo; read another in the Portland Press Herald.<\/p>\n<p>Denham and Valadao are reportedly also vulnerable, though not as much as so Cook and Polquin.<\/p>\n<p>The post <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"http:\/\/www.towleroad.com\/2016\/05\/republicans-switched-votes\/\">Democrats Vow to Unseat Republicans Who Switched Votes on LGBT Rights<\/a> appeared first on <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"http:\/\/www.towleroad.com\/\">Towleroad<\/a>.<\/p>\n<div>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.towleroad.com\/~ff\/towleroad\/feed?a=LTuJ6Z7OSYk:5EbjUZWps7U:qj6IDK7rITs\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/towleroad\/feed?d=qj6IDK7rITs\" border=\"0\"><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.towleroad.com\/~ff\/towleroad\/feed?a=LTuJ6Z7OSYk:5EbjUZWps7U:I9og5sOYxJI\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/towleroad\/feed?d=I9og5sOYxJI\" border=\"0\"><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.towleroad.com\/~ff\/towleroad\/feed?a=LTuJ6Z7OSYk:5EbjUZWps7U:yIl2AUoC8zA\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/towleroad\/feed?d=yIl2AUoC8zA\" border=\"0\"><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.towleroad.com\/~ff\/towleroad\/feed?a=LTuJ6Z7OSYk:5EbjUZWps7U:gIN9vFwOqvQ\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/towleroad\/feed?i=LTuJ6Z7OSYk:5EbjUZWps7U:gIN9vFwOqvQ\" border=\"0\"><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.towleroad.com\/~ff\/towleroad\/feed?a=LTuJ6Z7OSYk:5EbjUZWps7U:cGdyc7Q-1BI\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/towleroad\/feed?d=cGdyc7Q-1BI\" border=\"0\"><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.towleroad.com\/~ff\/towleroad\/feed?a=LTuJ6Z7OSYk:5EbjUZWps7U:YwkR-u9nhCs\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/towleroad\/feed?d=YwkR-u9nhCs\" border=\"0\"><\/a>\n<\/div>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~r\/towleroad\/feed\/~4\/LTuJ6Z7OSYk\" height=\"1\" width=\"1\" alt=\"\"><br \/>\n<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.towleroad.com\/~r\/towleroad\/feed\/~3\/LTuJ6Z7OSYk\/\" class=\"autohyperlink\">feeds.towleroad.com\/~r\/towleroad\/feed\/~3\/LTuJ6Z7OSYk\/<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Democrats Vow to Unseat Republicans Who Switched Votes on LGBT Rights Democrats are vowing retribution against the Republican congressmen who switched their votes on Rep.
