Rep. Andy Biggs (R-Ariz.) said he would support the motion to vacate House Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) from his position, though he thinks the top Republican could “probably” survive the vote.
Mr. Biggs’s comments came shortly before Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-Fla.) moved forward on Monday night to introduce a motion to remove Mr. McCarthy from his post. The hard-line Republican has repeatedly warned of ousting Mr. McCarthy from his office if concerns about specific items of government overspending were not acknowledged.
