They’ll have the speaker step down and then they’ll vote on a replacement.

It’s how they dumped Boehner.

Under the rules any member can call a vote to fire the speaker.

Pelosi got rid of it and conservatives want it back.

I think it has something to do with the house being able to vacate the speakership IF the speaker doesn’t follow what the constituents expect of him, the house would then vote to remove him as speaker!!
