GOP Scrambles to Fill Stefanik's Leadership Role

Following Rep. Elise Stefanik's selection by President-elect Trump for a UN role, Republicans are swiftly moving to fill her position as House GOP conference chair. Rep. Lisa McClain and Rep. Kat Cammack have announced their candidacies, with more contenders possibly joining before the internal leadership elections. The GOP is expected to maintain control of the House, though by a narrow margin. The conference chair role, previously held by Stefanik since 2021, is the fourth-ranking position in the House GOP leadership.

"Controversy Surrounding Rep. Jamaal Bowman's Fire Alarm Incident and Censure Resolution"

Republican Representative Lisa McClain has introduced a privileged resolution to censure Democratic Representative Jamaal Bowman for pulling a fire alarm in a congressional building during a vote on government funding. Bowman admitted to activating the alarm by mistake and has already pleaded guilty to one count of falsely pulling a fire alarm. The resolution comes after former Republican Representative George Santos introduced a resolution to expel Bowman, but was expelled himself before the vote could take place. Republicans allege that Bowman pulled the alarm to delay the funding vote, while Bowman maintains it was unintentional and apologizes for any confusion caused.
