House Republicans will hold leadership elections Tuesday to determine their party leaders for the next Congress, even though the House has still not officially been called in their favor.
House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy is followed by reporters as he arrives to a House Republican Caucus meeting at the Capitol on Nov. 14, 2022.
"I have spoken with many Republicans in Congress and many who will join our ranks soon. None are actually inspired by Kevin McCarthy," Rep. Matt Gaetz, R-Fla., said on his podcast last week. That lucky break led him to invest that money, use it to open up a deli named Kevin O's, and then sell that business to help pay his way through college. There he started working for his then-representative, Republican Bill Thomas, for the next 15 years. In 2002, he ran and won a seat in the California State Assembly where he was immediately elected party leader.
"I came to Congress to work to increase opportunities for all Americans," he said,"not to harm workers and small businesses." With that majority came a more right-wing, confrontational style of Republican lawmaker, and the party's"Young Guns" were also now part of the party establishment. Cantor was forced out in 2014 when he was defeated in his Republican primary by a candidate who ran to his right. In the aftermath, McCarthy became majority leader.
