  It's not that surprising a change from what I can tell. The current rule was only made in 2019.
context: It’s not like they’re limited to one motion to vacate a day. We could have 50 motions to vacate every day. >

  It'll be used a lot. In most cases the Chair will recognize a "Nay" voice vote and a call for actual voting will be much rarer.
  Once the Rules package is passed, and I think that will be bloody, and the committee assignments are finished, also bloody, you'll see a fairly unified Republican House gleefully getting on with their investigations. This will be their only work until September because the legislation they consider will only be ineffective show not serious enough to do battle with each other. >
  
  Does a Republican have to make the motion or can any congressman voice their motion? It has to be only Republicans correct? >
  
  The new Rules can say anything they want but theoretically it can be anyone.
  In practice the Chair of course can recognize or ignore whomever it wants. It can rule anyone out of order. When a voice vote is called the Chair decides who wins. A request for standing votes is also an eye count by the Chair. Only if a request from the floor gets by that would the electronic Yays & Nays be called. And even then, votes can be held open beyond the clock for change, arm twisting, members dying of old age.
  In practical terms I don't see a successful motion by a Democrat ever being made for a change in the Speakership. 
  Unlike the Senate where there are drastic limitations on the power of a slight/modest majority, in the House the slimmest of majorities is absolute and can do just about anything it wants (to the opposition, I'm not talking about the mess among themselves). This absolute power will become most obvious in the "investigations" and subpoenas to come.
