Former House Speaker Kevin McCarthy Announces Resignation from Congress, Pledges to Serve America in New Ways

Former House Speaker Kevin McCarthy announced Wednesday that he will be resigning from Congress at the end of the year, citing a desire to serve America in new ways. His departure is a blow to his successor, Speaker Mike Johnson, and House Republicans, further cutting the already narrow GOP majority and making passing legislation in 2024 more challenging. McCarthy did not specify what his new role will be, but said he will continue to serve the American people in a different capacity.
