Here are the 5 GOP lawmakers trying to oust McCarthy
Fox News
At least five House Republicans have come forward to oppose House Speaker Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif., after Rep. Matt Gaetz, R-Fla., moved to take away his speaker's gavel.
Because of Gaetz's motion, the House must vote on whether to keep McCarthy as speaker. Though McCarthy is supported by the vast majority of the GOP conference, if Democrats are united in opposition, only five Republicans need to vote against McCarthy to take away his gavel.
