House GOP has plan to protect speaker from ouster threat
The U.S. Capitol in Washington, D.C.
House Republicans will make it more difficult to oust the speaker for the 119th Congress, according to a rules package released Wednesday.
The Republicans’ proposed rules package prevents House Democrats from introducing a motion to vacate the speaker and raises the minimum number of Republicans required to prompt a vote on the speaker’s ouster to nine GOP members. The current rules for the 118th Congress allow any member of the House to trigger a vote to oust the speaker.
