According to sources within the conservative group, the House Freedom Caucus has now made the decision to remove Rep. Ken Buck (R-Colo.) from their ranks.
This move comes just days before his scheduled retirement from Congress.
According to a source within the Freedom Caucus, the decision to remove Buck from the group was made due to his lack of active participation and failure to attend meetings regularly.
According to a source, Buck, known for his occasional divergence from his party’s stance on different matters, was ousted due to his disagreement with conservatives on significant issues.
The source added that Buck was informed of the group’s decision on Tuesday night.
In a surprising turn of events, the conservative group has made the decision to exile Buck just days before his departure from Congress. This unexpected move has left many questioning the motives behind such a last-minute decision.
Last year, Buck made the announcement that he would be retiring from the House at the end of this year.
However, he recently decided to expedite his departure, revealing that he will be leaving Capitol Hill at the conclusion of this week.
The recent ruling continues to erode the Republican majority in the House.
