    Controvery Swirls Over Mystery '3-Page Addendum' To House Rules Package

    BY TYLER DURDEN

    Update (1445ET): There's word of a 'much-fabled 3-page House rules addendum' circulating throughout certain GOP offices in which McCarthy reportedly agrees on everything from the 20-holdout demands on everything from strategy on the debt ceiling, to committee assignments.

    According to Punchbowl News,

    there’s also a secret three-page addendum that McCarthy and his allies hashed out during several days of grueling negotiations with the House Freedom Caucus. This pact includes the most controversial concessions McCarthy made in order to become speaker – three seats on the Rules Committee for conservatives, freezing spending at FY2022 levels, a debt-ceiling strategy, coveted committee assignments and more.
