Rep. Patrick McHenry took over temporarily after Rep. Kevin McCarthy was ousted.

Rep. Patrick McHenry (R-N.C.) ordered Democrats who recently left leadership positions to vacate their private offices in the U.S. Capitol shortly after becoming acting speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives.

Mr. McHenry ordered Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.), who was speaker until January, to vacate her hideaway office, Ms. Pelosi said.

โ€œOne of the first actions taken by the new speaker pro tempore was to order me to immediately vacate my office in the Capitol,โ€ she said in a statement.

โ€œSadly, because I am in California to mourn the loss of and pay tribute to my dear friend Dianne Feinstein, I am unable to retrieve my belongings at this time.”

Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.) died on Sept. 29 at age 90.

Ms. Pelosi said that the eviction was “a sharp departure from tradition,” referencing that she allowed former Speaker Dennis Hastert (R-Ill.) to keep his private office “for as long as he wished.”

According to reports, an email from Mr. McHenry’s office to Ms. Pelosi states that he was going to reassign the hideaway “for speaker office use.”

“Please vacate the space tomorrow,” the email reportedly reads.

Ms. Pelosi said, โ€œOffice space doesnโ€™t matter to me, but it seems to be important to them. Now that the new Republican leadership has settled this important matter, letโ€™s hope they get to work on whatโ€™s truly important for the American people.โ€

Democrats Cry Foul

Ms. Pelosi was one of the members who didn’t vote on the motion earlier on Oct. 3 to remove Rep. Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) as speaker.

Mr. McCarthy, who was ousted from the speaker position and apparently allowed Ms. Pelosi to keep her private office, didn’t return an inquiry.

Rep. Steny Hoyer (D-Md.), who held a leadership position until January, was also told to vacate his hideaway office by Mr. McHenry, a spokeswoman for Mr. Hoyer told The Epoch Times via email.

Mr. McHenry didn’t respond to a request for comment.

Democrats decried the move.
