Rep. Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif., has said that if he becomes House speaker, he wants to unseat some Democratic lawmakers from committees. Here’s how he could do that, and what obstacles he would face.
Different lawmakers may have different priorities. Some want to create legislation; some focus more on constituent service; others see the House as a way to raise money and raise their profile.
Wolfensberger describes the speaker’s right to block Intelligence Committee members as "unchallengeable." But if Democrats nominate members McCarthy disapproves of, such as Omar, he could tell Democrats he’ll block their resolution until they remove the members from those committee assignments. Because Republicans will have the majority, they would have a good chance of winning this vote, seating Republican members but not Democrats.
