The House rebuked Rep. Jesús “Chuy” García (D-IL) on Tuesday for effectively setting up his chief of staff to succeed him by announcing his retirement plans after the filing deadline.

The resolution of disapproval over García’s actions passed the House 236-183, with 23 Democrats voting yes, while three more voted present. The condemnation of the Illinois Democrat marks a rare intraparty feud, as a fellow Democrat, Rep. Marie Gluesenkamp Perez (D-WA), introduced the measure against García.
