A Speaker of the House has yet to be elected after last week's round of voting.
LYCOMING COUNTY, Pa. — The United States House still remains without an elected speaker. Last week, Republican Jim Jordan failed to win the majority vote of his own party.
Another idea being floated around is keeping the temporary speaker, Republican Patrick McHenry, in power until an official vote in January. Kantack says there are positives for giving the temporary speaker more power. For example, passing bills and avoiding a government shutdown in November.
