Tonight, the House Of Representatives is entering week three without a speaker. Eight candidates are now vying for the job, after one dropped out in the last hour.

The c. R. , the senate nonstarter kevin hern has lloyd out in his messaging to all the members a critique of govern big continuing resolution and omnibus bills. He has a plan to get to us single subject spending bills if we have to bridge with the continuing resolution that wouldnt be my preference but were looking to go in the same direction. I would also note congressman mike johnson had a plan for single subject spending bills that was also quite attractive. Thanks. I think tonight was a productive opportunity for our conference to come together. Obviously overwhelmingly theres a viewpoint that we do get that the American People are frustrated with the processes that weve gone through.
