Texas Rep. Tony Gonzales said on 'Fox & Friends' Monday that he opposes the rules package because of the cut in defense spending and the changes to the motion to vacate the speaker.
I'm against the rules for a couple of different reasons. One is the defense spending, the cut in defense. I think that's an absolutely terrible idea. But the other is the. I don't want to see us every two months be in lockdown. This isn't the parliament. The American public are counting on House Republicans to be the one savior in this all.
If we can't get this right, it's going to be nightmare after nightmare. … This rules package vote isn't just about the rules. It's what does next week look like? What does next month look like? And you know what? I do think there's an opportunity in the House for rank-and-file members to lead. And I think that's what it's going to take.
