The best-case scenario, given the current situation, would be a clean continuing resolution (CR), but Democrats oppose that, leading to a standoff. The government is set to shut down on Friday, a choice made by Republican leadership. They could have extended funding longer, as Donald Trump suggested, but opted to push the issue to December to advance their own priorities. Now, they find themselves without a plan. It's crucial for Mike Johnson and his team to resolve this situation, as their current approach is problematic and they need to take responsibility for fixing it.

McCarthy deserves credit for devolving power, as he reinstated the motion to remove the speaker of the house. This motion allows any member to call for a vote to remove the speaker, and if 218 people vote in favor, the speaker is removed. Although I don't plan on using this motion, having it in place is important to prevent fear of retaliation for doing what's right.

This situation was avoidable. In January, I warned against repeating past mistakes where Republicans relied on Democrat votes for major spending bills. I supported Speaker McCarthy, helping pass key legislation, but our unity faltered with the Responsibility Act, which lacked significant spending cuts. Despite promises to leverage the debt ceiling for reforms, we ended up with an unlimited increase. The Speaker failed to bring all appropriations bills to the floor on time, leading members to negotiate among themselves. I reluctantly agreed to a compromise to move forward, but when a critical vote failed, it became clear the Speaker was unwilling to fight against Democrats. With national debt soaring and inflation high, we need a leader who will truly fight for fiscal responsibility. Regrettably, I must vote to vacate the chair.

The incoming small house Republican majority is starting off by bullying a fellow member of Congress instead of fostering collaboration. This raises questions about their priorities following the November election. Are they genuinely committed to solving issues like high living costs, housing prices, and grocery prices? It seems not. Their focus appears to be on far-right extremism rather than addressing the real concerns of the American people. We will continue to highlight this disconnect and demand that Congress prioritize the needs of the public.

Republicans are playing political games with censure resolutions because they're failing. Trump promised lower grocery prices, but they're rising. The stock market is falling, and inflation is up. Trump and House Republicans are crashing the economy. They haven't proposed any measures to improve the economic circumstances of Americans. This resolution is a distraction from their failures. House Democrats will focus on issues that matter to Americans. Every House Democrat voted against the reckless Republican budget. We stand with Medicaid and the American people, while Republicans side with their billionaire puppet masters like Elon Musk.

We just voted for Mike Johnson as Speaker of the House. Before that, I expressed my refusal to support the rules package due to concerning language from Nancy Pelosi's Congress. The Democrats had established an office of diversity and inclusion and included gender-inclusive language that removed traditional family terms like father, mother, son, and daughter, replacing them with neutral terms. I demanded changes, and I'm pleased to announce that the language has been revised. The office of diversity and inclusion has been eliminated, and traditional family terms have been restored in the rules. Republicans are committed to upholding traditional family values, and we will ensure that biological men are not allowed in women's private spaces. We'll share the updated language for your review.

Michigan House Republicans have walked off the floor during the lame duck session. With Democrats set to lose their majority in January, they are pushing through numerous bills that are seen as harmful to the state. For four days, Republicans have been waiting for discussions on three crucial bills aimed at supporting Michigan restaurants, small businesses, and improving road conditions. Frustrated with the lack of action, they decided to leave. They will not participate in voting on legislation that they believe will negatively impact Michigan unless the Democrats agree to vote on the bills that would aid small business owners and workers.

A handful of Republicans joined with all Democrats to take down a rule, which is rarely done. Ninety-six percent of House Republicans voted against proxy voting because they believe it's unconstitutional and that it would open a Pandora's box. The rule being struck down means there can be no further action on the floor this week. The House will not be voting on the SAVE Act for election integrity, rogue judges who are attacking President Trump's agenda, or taking down Biden policies with CRA votes. All of that was wiped off the table. They will regroup and come back to address it again.

I don't support Kevin McCarthy as Speaker because he can't be trusted and has caused chaos. The real chaos is the $33 billion debt, $2.2 trillion annual deficit, and the lack of passing single subject spending bills. We've been governed by continuing resolutions and omnibus bills since the mid-90s, which is chaotic. We need reforms like open amendments and understanding the budget. If we had these reforms, there would be times when my conservative colleagues and I would lose, but the American people would see us legislating. Speaker McCarthy hasn't delivered, so I've moved to vacate the chair.

One person can call for a vote to remove Kevin McCarthy, but a majority is needed, which means Democrats would have to vote against him. However, it is unlikely that Democrats will do so because McCarthy made a deal with them. The speaker believes that Democrats will actually support McCarthy to show who really governs and how it happens. The speaker wants to change this system and evaluate bills independently. McCarthy is making a secret deal on Ukraine while trying to get Republicans to vote for a continuing resolution that doesn't include Ukraine. McCarthy has lied to Democrats, Republicans, and the White House, but if they choose to keep him, he belongs to them.

The Republicans are currently voting on amendments for funding bills, and it's crucial that they come to an agreement to avoid a government shutdown. This disagreement is essentially between the hard right and the even harder right within the GOP. Unfortunately, under Kevin McCarthy's leadership, it seems difficult to govern. However, it's important that they find a way to keep the government running because ordinary Americans will suffer if they don't. There's a bipartisan continuing resolution supported by both Democrats and Republicans in the Senate, and I hope the House will have the opportunity to vote on it and work together in a bipartisan manner.

This is due to the strong grassroots campaign led by far-right activists in support of Jim Jordan.
