Members of the House Freedom Caucus derailed legislation to curtail federal regulation of gas stoves on Monday, have publicly complained about the debt limit compromise, and have floated a motion to vacate against McCarthy."Today, we took down the rule because we're frustrated at the way this place is operating," Rep. Matt Gaetz told reporters Monday.
The Freedom Caucus has long been a thorn in the side of McCarthy and other former Republican speakers. Earlier this year, many members in and aligned with the group put McCarthy through a historically unprecedented 15 votes to become speaker. "Speaker McCarthy has forgotten what I wanted out of the debt ceiling 'deal.' Here’s a brief reminder: STOP Congress’ out-of-control spending, thereby preventing an eventual default. DON’T add $4 trillion to our deficit. NO handouts to Democrats. He failed on all counts," Rep. Ken Buck , who helped tank the gas stove legislation on Monday, tweeted.
McCarthy has stood by the deal, arguing there wasn't a win for Democrats in the bill and touting the GOP's victories on spending growth reductions, permitting reform, and more.
