Buck served his last day in Congress last week. Their departures will bring Republicans down to a one-vote majority.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Former House Speaker <a href=\"http:\/\/washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/kevin-mccarthy\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title>Kevin McCarthy<\/a> also left Congress this term after he was ousted from his role last October. If Republicans lose the House before November, Democrats would control the executive and legislative branches of the federal government.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s just simple math. The more Republicans, like Mike Gallagher, that resign and leave early \u2014 guess what, that means we have less Republicans in the House,\u201d Greene said. \u201cSo, every time a Mike Gallagher or a Ken Buck leaves early, that brings our numbers down and brings us dangerously closer to being in the minority.
