Rep. Kevin Hern, R-Okla., jumped into the race for House speaker after Republicans turned down Jim Jordan's bid for the third time Friday and dropped him as the nominee.

Rep. Kevin Hern, R-Okla., jumped into the House speaker race after Republicans turned down Jim Jordan's bid for the third time Friday and dropped Jordan as the nominee.

"We just had two Speaker Designates go down," Hern wrote, referring to Jordan and Majority Leader Steve Scalise, R-La. "We must unify and do it fast." Hern, who has represented Oklahoma's 1st Congressional District since 2018, might not have the name recognition as Jordan and Scalise among Republican voters, but as chair of the Republican Study Committee , he leads the largest bloc of House conservatives. He also is a supporter of former President Donald Trump.

"We've introduced pro-life initiatives, hosted diplomats, and ambassadors from nations around the world, led energy discussions, pushed for stronger border security policies, and built stronger ties with our Republican Senate colleagues. People trust RSC as the Conference's policy powerhouse, and I have been proud to continue that tradition."
