- Roy, a conservative Texas lawmaker, defended having changed his vote to supporting McCarthy, saying Sunday he wasn’t promised anything in return.
- “This isn’t about Chip Roy wants a spot on a committee,” he said on CNN’s “State of the Union.” “I haven’t been promised anything. I haven’t gotten anything out of this deal, me personally. Does that mean I’ll end up on a committee? Maybe, if that’s what my colleagues want.”
- Greene, who is also among the House’s most conservative members, however, got on board early with McCarthy.
- The Georgia lawmaker said on the Fox News Channel she recently grew closer professionally to McCarthy after talking more to him and that said also has not been promised a plum position in the new, GOP-led House.
