That was made clear in the previous, 118th Congress, when a handful of representatives decided to fight—not even for spending cuts—but for a procedural change that could someday make it easier to cut spending.

He did this to secure the support of the Freedom Caucus and remaining dissenters during his messy, fifteen-round fight to become speaker at the beginning of 2023.
