Republican Rep. Kiley leaves GOP, tightening Johnson's margins - Axios
Overview
California Representative Kiley announced he is leaving the Republican Party but will continue to caucus with House Republicans for administrative purposes, while acknowledging he has often been an unreliable vote for Speaker Johnson. His decision shrinks the GOP's already thin governing margin in the House and increases pressure on Republican leadership to shore up support. That fragility is compounded by Rep. Tom Kean Jr.'s unexplained absence, which further threatens the GOP's ability to count on members when close votes arise.
