The Speaker Designate is expected to be elected early next week. “Electing the next Speaker of the House will require unity from House Republicans,” said Congressman Flood. “This pledge is a new effort to help our conference put our differences aside and come together. I’m urging all my colleagues to join this pledge so we can move forward with electing a Speaker and get on with the people’s business.” The text of the Unity Pledge reads as follows: “House Republicans need to elect a Speaker as soon as possible in order to return to work on behalf of the American people. It is time to put politics and personalities aside and unite behind the next Republican Conference choice for Speaker. I, _______ , hereby pledge to support the Speaker Designate duly elected by the House Republican Conference—regardless of who that candidate is—when their election proceeds to the House Floor. Further, I pledge to vote for the Speaker Designate on the House Floor for as long as they remain the Speaker Designate. | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-08T00:49:26Z |
