The GOP is at odds with one another over a government funding bill.
GOP senators who voted for the bills will not be allowed to have their bills considered in the House.
Four of the GOP senators who are retiring and 14 who will remain voted for it.
The Senate voted on Thursday to fund the government through most of next year, with 18 Republican senators joining all Democrats in sending the bill to the House.
The legislation includes reforms to the Electoral Count Act to make sure that a vice president cannot decide a presidential election. It has tens of billions of dollars for Ukraine.
The bill was opposed by conservatives in the House. The bill will deny House Republicans a key point of leverage if they refuse to fund the government. In a video on Truth Social, Donald Trump expressed his opposition to the bill.
Kevin McCarthy, who is trying to get enough Republican votes to become Speaker of the House next year, pledged to block any bills sponsored by Republican senators who voted for them.

McCarthy's threat was mostly ignored by the Senate.
Kevin Cramer is in a tough spot, he told CNN. Some Senate Republicans feel they should spare them from the burden of governing because of statements like that.
The retirement of four Republican senators who voted for the bill makes the threat meaningless to them.
McConnell argued that the bill was a victory for conservatives.
Fourteen returning senators who voted for the omnibus also include conservative lawmakers like Lindsey Graham and John Cornyn, so it's not certain whether McCarthy can keep his promise.
The Senate will remain in Democratic hands for the next two years, making it less likely that any Senate legislation that McCarthy and House Republicans would be willing to support will make it to their side of the Rotunda.
