Washington,
October 3, 2023
WASHINGTON, DC – Today, Congresswoman Lori Trahan (MA-03) issued the following statement after a Republican motion to vacate the Office of the Speaker passed the House, removing Speaker Kevin McCarthy from power: “From day one, Kevin McCarthy has put his ambition ahead of the American people and his job before the institution. He was a weak Speaker, and his inability to lead has ground the People’s House to a halt. Hardworking families deserve better than this inept Republican leadership, which is more focused on publicly warring with its own members than governing.” ### |
