But with some of those accomplishments achieved in part because of President Joe Biden's own missteps, the debt ceiling fight is poised to present McCarthy's greatest test so far.McCarthy is"doing a great job under difficult circumstances," according to Republican strategist John Feehery.
"After years of Democrat failure, Republican leadership is showing up and delivering for the American people,” RNC spokeswoman Emma Vaughn said. In a letter, McCarthy suggested the federal government reduce nondefense spending to fiscal 2022 levels, restrict future annual increases, reclaim unused allocated COVID-19 funds, and reform entitlement program work requirements for those without dependents who can be employed.
"I don't know what more I can do," McCarthy told reporters on Capitol Hill on Thursday."I would bring lunch to the White House. I would make it soft food if that's what he wants. It doesn't matter. Whatever it takes to meet."
