Rep. Carlos Gimenez, R-Fla., told Newsmax on Tuesday his preferred option for solving the chaos among House Republicans in picking a speaker is putting the gavel back in the hands of Rep. Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif.
McCarthy, who had been speaker since January, was removed Oct. 3 after a historic motion to vacate vote led by Rep. Matt Gaetz, R-Fla., and seven other Republicans – less than 4% of the GOP Conference – with the help of 208 Democrats.
"Byron is a friend of mine," Gimenez said. "He is in a district right next to my district down in Florida. He is a true conservative, and I think he's somebody that can bring the other conference together."
