TL;DR Summary

House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan, R-Ohio, is calling for a third vote on his nomination for speaker of the House. Jordan needs to win over the majority of House Republicans, but as of now, he seems far from that goal.

Many members have complained about bullying and threats from Jordan and his supporters. The impasse continues despite the looming threat of a government shutdown and new funding requests from President Biden.
