Wouldn’t that mean Speaker Jeffries? The dem caucus is a voting block.

I thought they couldn’t do anything before they elect a Speaker.

Unlikely. The Republicans would have to come to agreement before the vote.

“I thought they couldn’t do anything before they elect a Speaker.”

The floor is open for motions. But committees have not been formed.

This was referred to as the Committee of the Whole in our early history.
