House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy reacts to attorney Harmeet Dhillon entering the race for RNC chair on 'The Ingraham Angle.'Rep. Andy Biggs announced Tuesday that he would challenge Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy for speaker on the House floor in January.
Biggs, R-Ariz., announced his intention to oppose McCarthy in an op-ed with the Daily Caller.
"We cannot let this all too rare opportunity to effectuate structural change pass us by because it is uncomfortable to challenge the Republican candidate who is a creature of the establishment status quo, or because the challenge is accompanied by some minimal risk," wrote Biggs.
The Arizona hardliner previously challenged McCarthy in the contest designating the GOP's candidate for speaker. Biggs was defeated by a margin of 188 to 31.
If we dont get the smartest, sharpest Conservative to serve as Speaker, we will prove that the Democrats deserve to run America.
