House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) took to Twitter to note Pelosi would not be able to speak on the floor for the remainder of the day after failing to comply with House rules.
“BREAKING NEWS —> Speaker Pelosi just broke the rules of the House, and is no longer permitted to speak on the floor of the House for the rest of the day,” he tweeted.
But McCarthy‘s tweet ultimately proved to be premature.
House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jerrold Nadler (D-N.Y.) requested Pelosi‘s speaking privileges be restored immediately after the vote to strike her comments from the record failed on the floor.
