[quote=Anonymous]Democrats are not going to vote for any Republican for Speaker without institutional changes. It isn’t just about the Speaker. The House is almost evenly split, about 51/49, but Republicans have 9/4 control of the Rules Committee which determines the terms of debate and whether amendments can be offered on the floor. Republicans have a 34/27 advantage on the House Appropriations Committee. So Appropriations will report partisan Republican bills and then Rules won’t make Democratic amendments in order, so they can’t even get a debate and up or down vote. McCarthy stacked these committees with partisan Republicans to push their dumbass agenda. None of that has changed. [/quote]
