Press Releases

Congressman Earl L. “Buddy” Carter (Ga-01) released the following statement today after the announcement that elections for Speaker of the House will be delayed.

“We have too many pressing issues before us to waste our time dragging out this palace intrigue.  I respect Leader McCarthy’s decision but it’s time to come together, elect a new Speaker, and get to the work we were sent here to do.  We have been entrusted by the American people with the largest Republican majority since FDR was President.  Let’s get this Speaker’s race behind us and get back to work.”
