Jordan vs. Scalise: House Republicans duel over speaker gavel
Original: Jordan vs. Scalise leadership race
House Republicans are split between Jim Jordan and Steve Scalise in a contested fight for the party's speaker nomination. The Ohio congressman, backed by hardline conservatives and allies of Donald Trump, faces off against the Louisiana moderate-faction leader with longer institutional ties. Lawmakers are openly divided, raising doubts the party can unite quickly and govern with a narrow majority.
Why now: The speaker fight is happening now because House Republicans are divided after removing Kevin McCarthy and need a new speaker urgently.
