The Freedom Caucus is discussing potential speaker rivals against Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy amid a standoff over changing House rules next Congress.
"Kevin McCarthy has done nothing in two years to earn my vote," said Rep. Bob Good, R-Va. Haris Alic is a politics reporter for Fox News Digital covering Congress.
Others, meanwhile, want to strike a deal with McCarthy on the House rules. The demanded changes are technical but would drastically reduce the House speaker's control over the legislative process.
