The House of Representatives passed a rules package with a 215-209 vote that raises the threshold for a motion to vacate the chair from one to nine members of the majority party. This change limits the minority party's ability to challenge the Speaker, prompting criticism from Democrats. The rules package also disbands the Diversity and Inclusion Office, renames certain committees, and restricts the timing for certain legislative votes. These changes come just after Mike Johnson was re-elected Speaker, highlighting the ongoing tensions within the Republican party.
