In the U.S. House of Representatives, the Republican Party, which holds the majority, is unable to decide on a speaker, and in the vote on the fourth day of the session, many of the dissenters turned to support the party's top party, who is aiming to be the speaker.
However, it has not yet reached the majority necessary for election, and it is expected that persuasion within the party will continue to break through the situation.
In the U.S. House of Representatives, House Majority Leader McCarthy, the top opposition Republican who holds the majority, is aiming to elect the chairman, but conservative hard-liners within the party rebelled, and the chairman was not decided, and re-voting was repeated. Things are going on.
Within the Republican Party, the persuasion of rebel lawmakers continues, and on the 6th, the fourth day of Congress, Mr. McCarthy told reporters, ``We are going to move forward and give surprises.''
And in the 13th vote held early in the morning of the 7th in Japan time, 14 of the 20 lawmakers who had rebelled so far turned to support Mr. McCarthy.
However, the majority vote required for election is three votes short, and the situation continues that the chairman will not be elected.
McCarthy has made concessions to dissident lawmakers, including agreeing to make it easier for the incumbent chair to be removed and agreeing to place conservative hardliners on important committees.
It is the first time in 164 years since 1859 that more than 10 votes will be held without a chairman, and it is expected that the remaining members of the Republican Party, who continue to oppose the situation, will continue to persuade the party.
