.GOPLeader Kevin McCarthy offers key compromise in exchange for support on House speaker bid: Report
In a series of private meetings this week, McCarthy pledged to a number of Republicans that he would reduce the required number of votes to call a floor vote to oust a sitting House speaker in an effort to win their support, according to CNN. The latest compromise comes as McCarthy seeks to win over critics while maintaining support he has already garnered from elsewhere in the party.
The revelations come just days before the House is set to elect its new speaker, a position that McCarthy has already positioned himself to take despite facing renewed opposition in recent weeks. Some battleground Republicans have made their loyalties clear, with more than a dozen GOP lawmakers who won their races in states where President Joe Biden won in 2020 pledging their support for McCarthy.
