WASHINGTON, Oct 1 —Top US House Republican Kevin McCarthy could face an untimely end to his role as speaker after a hardline critic within his own party called for a vote to oust him, after passing a stopgap funding bill that drew more support from Democrats than Republicans.

Shortly after the House passed a bill averting a partial government shutdown, hardline Republican conservatives began targeting McCarthy’s role as speaker, claiming he had scored a victory for the “Uniparty” of Washington. “Go ahead and try,” McCarthy said in comments directed at his opponents yesterday. “You know what? If I have to risk my job for standing up for the American public, I will do that.”

Hardliners complained that the measure, known as a continuing resolution, or CR, left in place policies favoured by Democrats including Biden, Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer and former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi. “One thing I know. If Kevin McCarthy uses Democrat votes in the House of Representatives to advance Joe Biden’s spending priorities, he cannot remain as the Republican speaker,” Gatez told the far-right channel Real America’s Voice on Wednesday.

“The motion to vacate will come ... and the question will be: are we going to punish or reward leaders who put two-party solutions on the floor? That is squarely the question,” Fitzpatrick told reporters.
