About

He’s the top Republican in the House of Representatives. President Trump has referred to him as “my Kevin.”

But after the GOP lost 40 seats and their majority in the 2018 midterms, it’s fellow Californian Nancy Pelosi who wields the speaker’s gavel. On May 2nd, The Washington Post Live will host Republican House Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-California) for a wide-ranging discussion with national political reporter Robert Costa on immigration, the fallout from the Mueller report, the 2020 elections, and how he balances working with the Democratic majority while working as the president’s top advocate in the House.
