Repugnantans block funding for election protection

See the Dem pleas in the House here. During this House proceeding several Dems requested a unanimous consent request to approve the Quigley Amendment to restore funds to prevent Russian interference in American elections in 2018. They were all blocked. In an earlier House appropriations Bill the Repugs slashed funding in half from the Election Assistance Commission, with the EAC to be terminated by the end of 2018. So they are actively blocking the protection of our election process from Russian acts of war. I wonder why that is? Are they too committing treason?
