McCarthy ally Sessions warns GOP holdouts: Treating House like Senate 'dangerous way for us to go'
Fox News
Texas Republican Rep.-elect Pete Sessions warned it is "dangerous" for the House to be treated like the Senate in its operation as the chamber struggles to elect a speaker.
Sessions is behind Rep.-elect Kevin McCarthy in the race and said that "a lot of substance has come up" amid negotiations, including "a discussion about campaign activities that Mr. McCarthy was engaged in against other members of the conference."

"A lot of money, a million dollars spent against one of the sitting members in a primary. So there are deep-seated viewpoints about why they fought the way they fought," Sessions said. "But we have to get to a circumstance where now this is holding back a Republican majority."
