Quick Glance: McCarthy faces a difficult road in his attempt to remove Omar from the committee.
- House Republicans' long-standing pledge to boot Rep.
- The vote on Omar's nomination is still on hold for one obvious reason: Democrats have yet to officially name who will serve on the Foreign Affairs Committee, preventing Republicans from formally introducing a resolution to remove Omar.
- McCarthy, as speaker, has the unilateral authority to remove any lawmaker from a select committee, such as the Intelligence Committee.
- However, House Foreign Affairs is a standing committee, and removal from it requires a vote of the entire House.
- Ilhan Omar was barred from serving on the House Intelligence Committee.
