"House GOP Struggles to Find Unity in Speaker Chaos"

The Republican Study Committee (RSC), a conservative House Republican caucus, has become a significant link between the key players in the ongoing GOP speaker fight. The RSC, which is now home to the majority of House GOP lawmakers, has seen several prominent figures in the speaker race emerge from its ranks, including Rep. Jim Jordan and Majority Leader Steve Scalise. The current RSC chair, Rep. Kevin Hern, was also considered a potential speaker candidate. The RSC represents 80% of the Republican conference and emphasizes limited government and conservative principles.
