Rep. Mo Brooks threw his support behind the House Freedom Caucus members who are demanding Kevin McCarthy vow to abandon rule changes adopted by Speaker Nancy Pelosi in 2015.
Rep. Mo Brooks (R-AL) praised the efforts of House Freedom Caucus members to pressure Rep. Kevin McCarthy into restoring the “motion to vacate the chair” rule and readjust the committee assignment process.
“I applaud the efforts of those HFC [House Freedom Caucus] members who have tried to change the rules so that the public’s interest will carry more weight in what is now a very corrupt deliberative process in the House of Reps,” Rep. Brooks told National File in an exclusive interview.
Brooks went on to slam the process in which committee chairmanships and memberships are established and called it the reason the House of Representatives is “a corrupt body regardless of which body is in control.”
