U.S. Rep. Troy Nehls, R-Richmond, has resigned from the far-right House Freedom Caucus after a divisive vote Monday night to kick out another member.
Nehls was on the losing side of a 16-13 vote that ousted Rep. Warren Davidson of Ohio over his endorsement against the group’s chair, Rep. Bob Good of Virginia. The move leaves just three Texans in the group of arch conservatives, down from five at the start of the term.
