I am disappointed by the results of yesterday’s vote to remove the Speaker. I voted with the overwhelming majority of the Republican conference to back Speaker McCarthy and to get back to work on the remaining appropriations bills that would both reduce federal spending and stop the toxic policies of the Biden Administration. Unfortunately, the entire Democrat caucus joined with a very small number of Republican members to shut down the House and remove the Speaker," said Rep. Fitzgerald. "I will not dwell further on the motion to vacate. My focus is now 100% on electing another Republican Speaker to continue our oversight responsibilities and lead our conference to more wins for the American people.” ### | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-08T00:49:26Z |
