– U.S. Rep. Pat Fallon, R-4th District of Texas, has consistently supported Kevin McCarthy of California for Speaker of the House.
While U.S. Rep. Marc Veasey, D-33rd District of Texas and other Democrats in Congress have united behind Hakeem Jeffries of New York for Speaker, they're not in the majority. U.S. Rep. Mike Gallagher of Wisconsin was the first Republican to nominate McCarthy on Wednesday, the second consecutive day members of the House selected a speaker.But Congressman Chip Roy, R-21st District of Texas, has led the charge against McCarthy and nominated Byron Donalds instead."This country needs leadership that does not reflect this city, this town that is badly broken."
Rep. Fallon said conservatives have secured key changes to the rules, including one that gives lawmakers 72 hours to read major legislation before they have to vote on it, and another rule that makes it easier to potentially remove the Speaker."So if tomorrow or a week from now or a month from now, folks feel like Kevin McCarthy is not following through on his promises, we can simply remove him from office.
