Seven more House Republicans threaten to oppose McCarthy without concessions on House rules

Seven more members of the House Freedom Caucus are threatening to oppose Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy's ascension to be the next House speaker unless they win concessions on congressional rules.

Freedom Caucus lawmakers told Fox News Digital that they want McCarthy, R-Calif., to start getting serious about concessions on these rules or risk losing their support. The GOP lawmakers, led by House Freedom Caucus Chairman Rep. Scott Perry of Pennsylvania and Rep. Chip Roy of Texas, outlined their demands in a letter circulated to colleagues late Thursday.
