Former House Speaker Kevin McCarthy announced he would finish out his term and run for reelection in 2024 despite rumors he may resign early after his removal from the No. 1 leadership position.
McCarthy was removed in a 216-210 vote after Rep. Matt Gaetz filed a motion to vacate over allegations the former speaker crafted a “secret deal” with Democrats to advance Ukraine funding in exchange for support on a continuing resolution passed over the weekend to avert a government shutdown.
Now, some of McCarthy’s closest allies and top Republicans are suggesting repealing that rule altogether, arguing it makes it too difficult to govern. A group of more than 80 House Republicans sent a letter to acting Speaker Patrick McHenry on Friday requesting a meeting to change that conference rule, seeking to raise the threshold needed to file a motion to vacate.
