Thanks to Sheryl Miller for the copy edit. 🎥 Breaking: C-SPAN — which won hearty praise for its free-range camerawork during last week's House fight — asked Speaker McCarthy to relax old rules and allow the additional angles to remain. The chamber's usual cameras are stationary to prevent reaction shots. Read the letter. | | | | | | 1 big thing: McCarthy's secret concessions | | Speaker McCarthy walks to his office from the House floor today. Photo: Sarah Silbiger/Reuters At a conference meeting today, House Republican leadership presented some — but not all — of the private concessions made to Freedom Caucus members in exchange for their support of Speaker Kevin McCarthy, multiple members told Axios' Andrew Solender. - Many Republicans had been in the dark over the details, outlined in a document that only some of them have seen and others refuse to talk about.
Rep. Nancy Mace (R-S.C.) said before the conference meeting she planned on "raising hell" about "whatever potential backroom deals may have been done." - Afterward, Mace said McCarthy outlined certain policies but left out "other side deals for chairmanships and committee assignments. ... We won't know until the steering process is actually over," she said.
- NRCC chair Rep. Richard Hudson (R-N.C.), who said he's seen the document, said it does not contain promised chairmanships for specific members.
Driving the news: The existence of a "secret three-page addendum" containing "the most controversial concessions" that McCarthy made was first reported by Punchbowl News. - One of those concessions is seats set aside for conservatives on the Rules Committee and Appropriations Committee.
The intrigue: Some members involved in the negotiations have also suggested there is no official document. "We had a verbal handshake agreement with Speaker McCarthy," said Rep. Dan Bishop (R-N.C.). |     | | | | | | 2.
