If President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris were killed or incapacitated, the speaker of the House would become president of the United States.

And right now, Republicans in Congress are trying to elevate Jim Jordan to that critical position. (Jordan got fewer votes today than he did yesterday, but remember that it took 15 votes over five days for Kevin McCarthy to become speaker back in January.)

We can’t let this happen.
Letting Jim Jordan wield the speaker’s gavel would be putting a full-blown MAGA insurrectionist second in line to be president.

Tell Congress: Under no circumstances should Jim Jordan be made speaker of the House.

Take action today even if you’ve taken action against Jordan already. Congress needs to hear from the American people again and again until Jordan’s bid for speaker is stopped for good.

Thanks for taking action.

For democracy,

- Robert Weissman, President of Public Citizen
