There will be a vote and it can be delayed by leadership for up to 48 hours.
If it succeeds, we go back to where we started in January.
Gaetz had earlier posted a speech he gave on the House floor to X.
In the post, Gaetz asked, “What was the secret side deal that @SpeakerMcCarthy made with Joe Biden on Ukraine?”
“Members of the Republican Party might vote differently on a motion to vacate if they heard the answer to that question,” Gaetz insisted.
