Himes | H001047 | himes.house.gov | himes | https://himes.house.gov/press-releases | page_html | Washington, DC — Today, Congressman Jim Himes (CT-04) issued the following statement on the vote to remove Kevin McCarthy as Speaker of the House. “Last week, Democrats averted a government shutdown by supporting a Republican stop-gap bill which would otherwise have failed. With that vote, we proved once again that bipartisanship, not performative infighting, is the key to strong government. “It is time for Republicans to stop catering to the radical extremes of their caucus, and instead reach across the aisle to pass moderate, thoughtful legislation that focuses on helping Americans. I hope that, after this historic vote to remove the Speaker, the House can move towards more productive pursuits with that purpose in mind.” | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-03-30T11:08:25Z |
