Meadows’ Move Against Boehner Splits N.C. Delegation

RALEIGH — U.S. Rep. Walter Jones, R-3rd District, is a staunch supporter of the efforts of fellow North Carolinian Mark Meadows (11th District) to unseat House Speaker John Boehner of Ohio. Jones says Boehner is out of touch with Republican Party principles. In contrast, Rep. Virginia Foxx, R-5th District, scolded Meadows for invoking a rare procedural move to oust Boehner.
