Republicans spoke to Fox News Digital after the vote about whether they think McCarthy will keep his job as speaker
Fox News senior congressional correspondent Chad Pergram has the latest on the House of Representatives passing the debt ceiling deal by a 314-117 vote on 'The Ingraham Angle.'
McCarthy himself dismissed concerns about the move during a press conference after the bill's passage."That's up to them," he told Fox News Digital. "I'm not going to file a motion to vacate, but I do think it's going to be a discussion next week," he added."I don't know how you avoid the discussion at this point, more Democrats voted for this bill than Republicans," Buck said.
US House Majority Leader Steve Scalise smiles as US House Speaker Kevin McCarthy wraps up a press conference in the Rayburn Room following the House vote on Fiscal Responsibility Act at the US Capitol in Washington, DC on May 31, 2023. "More Democrats voted for this"historic conservative victory" than Republicans. What a joke," Rep. Eli Crane, R-Ariz., tweeted.
