Congressman Bean Stands with Speaker McCarthy

WASHINGTON—U.S. Congressman Aaron Bean (FL-04) released the following statement in response to today’s vote on the motion to vacate the Chair against House Speaker Kevin McCarthy.

“For the past ten months, I have been proud to stand with Speaker Kevin McCarthy. He is a principled leader, who puts our great nation and the American people first.

Under the leadership of Speaker McCarthy, we’ve reopened the People’s House, eliminated proxy voting, and championed bills that cut reckless spending from our oversized government.

The motion to vacate is a total distraction from the serious work Congress is considering. Instead of political games, we must focus on securing our open border and reducing the size of our government. Kevin McCarthy is the right Speaker for this moment in our nation’s history.”
