Rep. Matt Gaetz, R-Fla., will file a motion to remove House Speaker Kevin McCarthy, he told CNN on Sunday.
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. The Republican-controlled House voted 335-91 to adopt a 45-day stopgap measure hours before funding for federal agencies was set to expire. The Democrat-led Senate later approved the same bill with bipartisan support and sent it to President Joe Biden to sign into law.
"Should he remain Speaker of the House?" Republican Representative Andy Biggs, a leading hardliner, asked on the social platform X, formerly known as Twitter. The bipartisan measure succeeded a day after Biggs and 20 other hardliners blocked a Republican stopgap bill that contained sharp spending cuts and immigration and border restrictions, all of which hardliners favor.
"Kevin McCarthy put a CR on the Floor that got 209 Democrat votes, since it kept in place the Biden-Pelosi-Schumer policies that are destroying the country and the spending levels that are bankrupting us," hardline Representative Bob Good said on X. It was not clear what action Democrats might take if a Republican moved to vacate the chair and the House voted on the measure.
