Am pretty sure the fifteen rounds of Speaker selection battle was (in part) to implement new house rules that included single topic bills.
See section 2.
Requirement with Respect to Single Subject Bills. Subsection (c) provides that, effective February 1, 2023, a bill or joint resolution may not be introduced unless the sponsor submits a statement setting forth the single subject of the bill or joint resolution. This statement must be included with the statement required by clause 7(c) of rule XII (Constitutional Authority Statements). A statement for any bill or joint resolution introduced prior to the effective date shall, to the extent practicable, be submitted by the sponsor prior to committee or House consideration.
Your questions are not dumb. I have an affinity for questions.
Gaetz resigned.

I dunno about Pelosi.
It was the Trump pared down version that was brought to the floor for the vote. The Democrats thought they had made backroom deals that would be voted on. They didn't expect anyone to read the entire 1547 pages in time before Christmas and they certainly did not think the American people would read the details of what is in those 1547 pages much less be vocal about it at Christmas. They thought they could blackmail our Representatives and us with the threat of government shutdown. They were peeved that Elon Musk helped amplify the people's voices. They were peeved that the Trump version was a readable 114 pages containing only the deals they had made for the immediate American needs +;a two year extension of the debt limit to enable Trump's incoming administration to work for us without the "debt limit game piece" being used to thwart their service. So Democrats voted No.
I should note that the debt limit game piece is a construct created by Congress in 1917 with the Second Liberty Bond Act. Woodrow Wilson was President.. Wilson revealed much of the "progressive" playbook, including declaring US participation in WW1.
Yes. Some MAGA believe extension of debt ceiling is bad. Some believe it was installed to use as a game piece in government spending.
Am pretty sure Massie voted No because he chose not to play the congressional hostage game of threatening government shutdown right before Christmas break.
perseverance.
