Republican Rep. Chip Roy accused House Speaker Kevin McCarthy of cutting a deal that could complicate negotiators’ efforts to pass a bill to raise the US debt ceiling this week. McCarthy’s allies quickly refuted the Texas Republican, underscoring the tension ahead of a key meeting of the House Rules Committee on Tuesday – and putting new pressure on a conservative holdout, Rep. Thomas Massie of Kentucky, who has yet to take a position on the plan.
