McCarthy to meet with Steve King about white supremacy remarks: 'Action will be taken'
By Brett Samuels - 01/13/19 11:04 AM EST
House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) pledged Sunday to take action in response to Rep. Steve King's latest inflammatory comments in which the Iowa Republican questioned why the terms “white nationalist†and “white supremacist†were offensive.
McCarthy condemned the comments, and said on CBS's "Face the Nation" that he will meet with King on Monday to discuss the matter.
"Action will be taken," he said. "I’m having a serious conversation with Congressman Steve King on his future and role in this Republican Party."
"There is a number of things you’ll see that is taking place," he continued. "But I will not stand back as a leader of this party, believing in this nation that all are created equal, that that stands or continues to stand and has any role with us."
