BOEHNER FACES COUP ATTEMPT

POLITICO’s Lauren French and Jake Sherman: Rep. Mark Meadows (R-N.C.) has filed a motion to try to force Speaker John Boehner from his leadership post. The action, called a motion to vacate the chair, has never been successfully used to depose a speaker. And most Republicans say Meadows would have a tough time finding the requisite votes to overthrow Boehner. Still, it represents a new level of opposition to the Ohio Republican’s speakership from the conservative wing.

“The motion, which was filed late Tuesday afternoon, can be easily disregarded by supporters of Boehner in its current form. Sources say Meadows will circulate a so-called discharge petition to force a vote on the motion. But if he wanted a vote in the next two legislative days, he could simply stand up and ask for one. If he did that, the motion would be considered “privileged,” which would make it the immediate business of the House. In its current form, Meadows’ motion is simply a statement of opposition to Boehner.”
