What we know now about the impact of the House Speaker stalemate | USA TODAY

A handful of hard-right Republicans, led by Rep. Matt Gaetz, R-Fla., ousted former House Speaker Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif., earlier this month, and Republicans in the lower chamber have failed to coalesce around a replacement.
House Democrats refused to vote to save McCarthy and have since refused to lend their support to Republican speaker candidates, including Republican Reps. Jim Jordan of Ohio and Steve Scalise of Louisiana.
