About 30 House Republicans have proclaimed which individual they support to be the next Speaker of the House. It appears conservatives are lining up behind Rep. Jim Jordan while more moderate Republicans are backing Rep. Steve Scalise.
Jordan has an impressive 100 percent lifetime score from CPAC, scoring 420 votes. Scalise has a lifetime rating of 91.43 percent, scoring 372 votes. However, Scalise’s score has dropped considerably the past few years. Here are the ratings of the individuals:
Jordan has an ‘F’ score from the GOP For Ukraine. Scalise receives a ‘B.’
Both Jordan and Scalise voted against certifying the 2020 election. Both voted against the Respect For Marriage Act.
Jordan receives a 93.30 percent score from Turning Point Action while Scalise registers 86.60 percent.
While Jordan has maintained his perfect score, Scalise’s most recent rating was 82 percent.
Jordan has a 94 percent from Conservative Review, while Scalise has a 58 percent.
Scalise was docked for voting in support of a defense spending bill that failed to defund military vaccine mandates. He also voted in support of a $40 billion aid package for Ukraine. Scalise supported the $1.5 trillion Omnibus bill that funded Biden’s vaccine mandates. In 2021, Scalise supported a move to force women to register for the draft.
His record from 2018 and 2017 is brutal:
