Jordan builds momentum to Speakership but still faces opposition: Live coverage

House Judiciary Chairman Jim Jordan (R-Ohio) is gaining momentum as he tries to lock down support for the Speakership, but opposition remains.

Jordan scored key pickups on Monday when four Republicans who had previously publicly opposed him flipped their votes: House Armed Services Committee Chairman Mike Rogers (Ala.) along with Reps. Ann Wagner (Mo.), Ken Calvert (Calif.) and Vern Buchanan (Fla.). 

But at least six Republicans say they plan to vote against the fast-talking, hard-line Ohio Republican — enough to keep him from winning the gavel if all members of the House vote.

At the same time, the crisis in Israel has not abated, and the U.S. is barreling toward its next shutdown deadline — all while the House closes in on two weeks without a Speaker.
