Dear john,
We're going on 3 weeks without a Speaker of the House. Every day that passes without a Speaker is a day that diminishes our credibility on the world stage; it's quite shameful and embarrassing that my Conservative colleagues continue infighting and projecting our country as weak to both allies and adversaries.
As we prepare for another Republican to be nominated for Speaker and to lead the Republican Conference and the House of Representatives, I remain convinced that the only path forward is a bipartisan solution.
The American people are frustrated. We have two ongoing conflicts in Israel and Ukraine, as well as an impending government shutdown less than a month away and we must act quickly. My Conservative colleagues need to get their act together, for the sake of our country and our allies.
