Freedom Caucus expands after House floor uprising.

The Freedom Caucus, a group of hardline House conservatives, has admitted two new members, Reps. Diana Harshbarger and Eric Burlison, after a recent floor protest that halted chamber proceedings. The group is expanding its reach, but also facing fresh divisions over strategy and simmering discontent from some GOP colleagues. The Freedom Caucus is expected to help GOP leaders advance bills rolling back regulations on gas stoves and pistol braces, but is still in search of unity on the best way to achieve their ultimate goal of shaping this fall’s government spending bills to their liking.
