Republican Reps. Marjorie Taylor Greene of Georgia and Paul Gosar or Arizona will not be punished for their participation in a white nationalist conference, according to House Republican leader Kevin McCarthy. 

The California Republican called the recent conference "appalling" and said his members' role in the event was unacceptable, yet insisted that the two shall face no consequences. Instead, McCarthy said he spoke with Greene and got her word that she would not attend the conference again in the future. As of Wednesday, McCarthy said he has yet to speak with Gosar.
