Republican Reps. Steve Scalise, of Louisiana, and Jim Jordan, of Ohio, are the two declared candidates for House speaker to replace Rep. Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif.

"We've got a very bipartisan bill. The McCall-Meeks resolution is ready to go right away to express our support for Israel now. We got to get back to work today," Scalise said."As Conference Chair, my goal is to ensure we unify to elect a Speaker to deliver legislative results for the American people to save the country," sheJordan has entered this morning's meeting.

If a candidate gets at least 185, but not 217 votes, on the House floor, the rules change would also poll members on whether they would support a candidate receiving a majority of votes on the House floor and move to a roll call vote, rather than a secret ballot after a certain number of rounds.The House Republicans will start their closed-door process of picking the next speaker at 10 a.m. The meeting was originally scheduled for 9 a.m. but got pushed to accommodate a different briefing.

And that means that while one candidate may have a majority of Republicans after one vote, the process could drag on while they try to wrangle 217 votes before emerging to make it official.McCarthy might be hinting he's willing to take the job back, but he's been telling his allies not to nominate or vote for him today.
