- Freedom Caucus (Wikipedia)
The Freedom Caucus, also known as the House Freedom Caucus, is a congressional caucus consisting of Republican members of the United States House of Representatives. It is generally considered to be the most conservative and furthest-right bloc within the chamber. The caucus was formed in January 2015 by a group of conservatives and Tea Party movement members, with the aim of pushing the Republican leadership to the right. Its first chairman, Jim Jordan, described the caucus as a “smaller, more cohesive, more agile and more active” group of conservative representatives. Members of the Freedom Caucus are typically considered a part of the MAGA movement and loyalists to Donald Trump.
