Support growing for Jordan as Speaker

Rep. Nancy Mace said Rep. Jim Jordan of Ohio is her pick to be the next House speaker after she was among a small contingent of Republicans who voted to oust Kevin McCarthy from the role last week.

“I am going to be supporting Jim Jordan for speaker,” the South Carolina Republican told “Face the Nation” on Sunday.

She cited Jordan’s “work ethic” and “his ability to just run circles around everyone with regards to policy and pushing forward.”

“We’ve been one of the least productive Congresses inside of 30 years and he’s going to be a workhorse for our country,” she said.
