The initial vote to vacate Rep. Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif., as House speaker will come Tuesday after Rep. Matt Gaetz, R-Fla., first introduced the motion Monday night, Fox News Digital has learned.
Gaetz, a frequent McCarthy critic, introduced a motion to vacate on Monday. Tuesday’s vote will determine whether it advances to a committee vote.
The last time the House faced such a vote was in 1910 with Speaker Joe Cannon, R-Ill.
