(Worthy News) – Speaker Kevin McCarthy is rushing forward a vote on a bipartisan agreement to hike the nation’s debt limit until after the 2024 election, even as a brewing revolt from hard-right members of the House Freedom Caucus casts doubt on his future as leader.
The full House is set to vote on the debt-limit proposal on Wednesday, in time for the Senate to consider the deal before the June 5 default deadline. Mr. McCarthy expressed confidence that the legislation would receive the support of a majority of House Republicans and Democrats.
