Democrats Will Extract a Price to Help McCarthy

[ad_1]

Punchbowl News: “House Democratic leadership told us they haven’t heard anything from Speaker Kevin McCarthy about his quest to retain the speakership. The conventional wisdom was McCarthy would need Democrats to survive.”

“But more importantly, leadership sources tell us that their caucus – ranging from progressives to moderates – won’t help protect McCarthy unless he makes substantial changes to the way the House works.”

“In other words, helping McCarthy won’t come for free.”

Said House Minority Whip Katherine Clark: “If and when we have a motion to vacate, we will come together as a caucus and we’re gonna have a discussion about how to best move forward that’s in the best interest of families at home. And we just have to wait and see how this civil war plays out.”
