Speaker Johnson Removes Rep. Thomas Massie from House Rules Committee, Appoints Virginia Foxx as Chair
Jan 14, 2025, 03:56 PM
House Speaker Mike Johnson has removed Representative Thomas Massie from the House Rules Committee following a closed-door vote by the House Republican Conference. Massie, who was the lone Republican to vote against Johnson's speakership bid on January 3, had previously offered to step down from the committee. He has been replaced by Representative Morgan Griffith, a member of the House Freedom Caucus, seen as less rebellious than his peers. Additionally, Representative Virginia Foxx has been appointed as the new chair of the Rules Committee, replacing retired Representative Michael Burgess. The Rules Committee plays a crucial role in determining the parameters for considering legislation, setting restrictions on debate and amendments.
