WASHINGTON — A number of House Republicans, including Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy, are wrestling with Speaker Nancy Pelosi over the return of a mask mandate in the House, protesting the requirement and even calling for her removal from office.
Following the announcement, the attending physician for Congress, Dr. Brian Monahan, said in an alert to House members Tuesday that people are required to wear masks again inside the chamber and office buildings and in committee meetings. The group of lawmakers, in a united front, urged McCarthy, R-Calif., to call for the removal of Pelosi, D-Calif. Pelosi has criticized House Republicans for failing to vaccinate enough members even though they have priority access to the shots.
