Conservative Mutiny Threatens Key Legislation in Congress.

TL;DR Summary
House Republicans who caused a legislative stalemate earlier this week want written assurances from Speaker Kevin McCarthy that conservatives will get more of a say in what the chamber does after their trust in him had been "shattered" over the debt limit bill, according to Rep. Ben Cline. Members of the hard line-right House Freedom Caucus and their allies tanked a procedural vote on the rules for a set of Republican-backed bills on Tuesday. It was the first time in two decades that a rules vote had failed.
