Jordan planned to support Speaker Pro Tempore Patrick McHenry through early January while he attempted to sway more Republicans to consider him for the position down the road.
However, many House Republicans
opposed the idea of empowering McHenry
at this time, Fox News reports.
.
Rep.
Ralph Norman said the plan would
create a "Democrat-deal speaker.".
Rep.
Pat Fallon, who claims two-thirds
of House Republicans opposed the plan, said,
"oh, hell no," when asked about the possibility.
.
Rep.
Greg Murphy thinks the plan would
prohibit other Republicans from running
for the position if they'd like to.

It is enabling one person to continue
to try to campaign.
Why [can't] other
people campaign at the same time?
, Rep.
Greg Murphy, via statement.
So I'd find if we basically allowed
[McHenry] to do that, is it fair for us
to just put all our eggs in one basket,
who's losing votes?
Probably not, Rep.
Greg Murphy, via statement.
Following the outcry, Jordan reversed course.
We made the pitch to members on the
resolution as a way to lower the temperature and get back to work.
We decided that
wasn't where we're going to go, Rep.
Jim Jordan, via statement.
I'm still running for speaker
and I plan to go to the floor and
get the votes and win this race, Rep.

On June 26, South by Southwest (SXSW) announced that the
United States Army would no longer be sponsoring the
2025 festival after boycotts by artists and panelists occurred in 2024.
After careful consideration,
we are revising our sponsorship
model. As a result, the U.S. Army,
and companies who engage in
weapons manufacturing, will
not be sponsors of SXSW 2025, SXSW statement, via Fox News.

out of the 2024 festival "in solidarity with Palestine,"

The group called for a boycott of SXSW
over the organization's ties to the U.S. military

We appreciated the opportunity
to join South by Southwest in 2024.
With U.S. Army Futures Command
headquartered in Austin, we value
any opportunity to join with our
community to ignite discovery
and make new connections. , Lt. Col. Jamie Dobson, U.S. Army Futures Command Spokesperson, via Fox News Digital.
The Army will continue to
seek opportunities to meet
technology innovators and
leaders, explore new ideas
and insights, and create dynamic
industry partnerships because
tomorrow is worth protecting. , Lt. Col. Jamie Dobson, U.S. Army Futures Command Spokesperson, via Fox News Digital.
Bands and artists participating in the boycott,
including Squirrel Flower, Scowl and Okay Shalom,
explained why they protested the 2024 festival. .
There are many ways SXSW is harmful
to working musicians, but I am pulling
out specifically because of the fact
that SXSW is platforming defense
contractors including Raytheon
subsidiaries as well as the U.S. Army,
a main sponsor of the festival, Squirrel Flower, also known as
Ella Williams, via Instagram.
Genocide profiteers like Raytheon
supply weapons to the IDF, paid for
by our taxes. A music festival should
not include war profiteers. I refuse
to be complicit in this and withdrawl
