WASHINGTON Republicans from the hardline House Freedom Caucus suggested House Speaker Kevin McCarthy (Calif.) would pay a price for striking a budget deal with President Joe Biden .

No matter what happens, theres going to be a reckoning about what just occurred, Rep. Chip Roy (R-Texas) said Tuesday at a press conference with 10 other Freedom Caucus members who vowed to oppose the agreement.

Rep. Scott Perry (R-Pa.), the chairman of the group, avoided answering questions about whether he would support a motion forcing a vote of a no-confidence in McCarthy. But Rep. Dan Bishop (R-N.C.) raised his hand when a reporter asked the group if they were open to such a motion.

Bishop then told Politico that the so-called motion to vacate the chair is inescapable. It has to be done, he said.

Under House rules that McCarthy negotiated with Freedom Caucus members in January, a single member can force a vote to oust the speaker. In previous years such votes have required much more support; conservatives sought the change in order to hold sway over McCarthy.

The Biden-McCarthy deal, known officially as the Fiscal Responsibility Act, would raise the debt limit until 2025, hold spending flat in 2023, and limit spending to a 1% increase in 2024, with the promise of future reductions in the coming years. It also includes priorities Republicans sought like new work requirements for federal safety net programs and smaller funding for the Internal Revenue Service.

House GOP leadership has urged quick passage of the bill, describing it as a historic agreement that would reduce spending and get the nations fiscal house back on track. But conservatives are livid, saying it falls short of the spending reductions needed to sufficiently reduce the deficit.
