House Freedom Caucus Chairman Scott Perry rejected House Republican Leader Kevin McCarthy’s bid hours before the vote for speaker of the House.
FILE – House Republican Leader Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif., rushes to his office with reporters in pursuit, at the Capitol in Washington, Thursday, May 12, 2022. The new 118th Congress, with Republicans in control of the House, begins Jan. 3, 2023, but the first task for the GOP is electing a new speaker and whether Kevin McCarthy can overcome opposition from conservative lawmakers in his own ranks to get the job. We’ve worked in good faith for months to change the status quo.
In an attempt to flesh out and add substance to his ultimatum and our many discussions, we approached McCarthy with an offer to get him to 218 votes. He declined.
