House members voted to remove the Speaker after a GOP rebellion.
California Republican Rep. Kevin McCarthy lost his job as House Speaker after a GOP rebellion in the chamber.
The vote was 216 to 210, with some members not voting. Before the voting, during debate by lawmakers, Rep. Bruce Westerman said nothing like this had been attempted since 1910. McCarthy won the Speaker’s gavel in January but only after the 15th ballot. His decision last weekend to propose a bill to extend government funding into November, which garnered Democratic support, sparked an effort to oust him by Rep. Matt Gaetz . That led to Tuesday’s vote.
